Domaine du Pégau’s 2020 Cuvée Réservée is a textbook example of traditional Châteauneuf-du-Pape. Made mostly from Grenache with Syrah, Mourvèdre and others, the wine is fermented with whole clusters and aged in old oak foudres. It delivers aromas of blackberries, leather, black olive, pepper and dried herbs. The palate is full-bodied, intense and structured, with earthy complexity and firm yet ripe tannins. The finish is long, savory and wild. A bold and deeply expressive southern Rhône red.

Why choose this wine:

Because it represents a pure, traditional expression of Châteauneuf-du-Pape in a warm, balanced vintage. The 2020 combines ripeness with energy and structure, offering long ageing potential and authentic character. A must-have for Rhône purists and collectors alike.

Looking at the classic 2020 Châteauneuf Du Pape Cuvée Réservée, it shows the ripe, round, opulent side to the vintage as well as classic Pegau notes of gorgeous black cherries, Provençal garrigue, sandalwood, and ground pepper, with some background meaty nuances. Medium to full-bodied, it has a layered, seamless mouthfeel, plenty of ripe tannins, and outstanding length. It's a more forward style of Pegau, not far off the style of the 2018, but it will nevertheless keep for two decades.
