A red fruit palate with soft to medium grip tannin

Harmonious and supple on the mid-palate with a silky and transparent character towards the crunchy and vibrant finish

Domaine du Pegau Chateauneuf-du-Pape Cuvee Reservee, Rhone, France 2012 500ml Cueva A red fruit palate withOne of my favorite wines, the 2012 Chteauneuf du Pape Cuvee Rserve is a classic. Beautiful on the nose, with notions of ground pepper, wild herbs, minerality and smoked plum and dark fruit, its medium to full bodied, nicely concentrated and has plenty of tannin that comes through on the finish. 94 Pts Wine Advocate
