The flagship of the Domaine du Pegau, the Cuvée Réservée represents the Domaine over the years. A blend of 13 grape varieties, mainly Grenache, Syrah and Mourvèdre, the Cuvée Réservée reveals the typical characteristics of the Châteauneuf-du-Pape soils.
96 / 100 - WINE ADVOCATE (ROBERT PARKER)
"Now that it has been in bottle a while, the 2015 Chateauneuf du Pape Cuvee Reservee is looking even better than I projected based on last year`s prebottling sample. It`s all violets, cherries, subtle allspice and clove and traditional garrigue notes of lavender and thyme. Full-bodied and rich, it`s crazy complex, adding hints of tar and black olives on the long, silky finish. It should evolve beautifully over the next two decades."
Soil: Mainly covered with pebbles, clay and limestone mixture tends to iron and sand.
Winemaking: Manual grape harvesting No destemming Natural yeasts, spontaneous fermentation Concrete tank, maceration 12 days Elevage: 50 hL old oak cask/2 years.
Tasting Notes: Dark red colour with a purple body. the nose reveals black ripe fruits such as morello cherries and raspberries, juniper berries, black pepper and garrigue. After several years of ageing, the aromas will be characterised by plums, dried stone fruits, leather, fur and sandalwood. The mouth is round rich and powerful with soft tannins. With time, it will involve more complex and spicy wine.
Food Pairing: Red grilled meat, lamb shoulder with thyme and dishes of tapas curry.
