Domaine Pegau Chateauneuf du Pape cuvée Da Capo red 2007

Domaine du Pégau Châteauneuf-du-Pape Cuvée Da Capo 2007 stands among the legendary wines of the Southern Rhône. Awarded a perfect 100 points in The Wine Advocate, this extraordinary vintage represents the pinnacle of the Féraud family’s winemaking expertise. Produced only in exceptional vintages, Cuvée Da Capo is the estate’s most prestigious expression, sourced primarily from the celebrated La Crau vineyard and composed of more than 90% Grenache. Traditionally aged in an old foudre, the 2007 combines immense concentration, extraordinary richness and remarkable elegance. Its deep ruby colour introduces an intensely complex bouquet of Provençal garrigue, cured meats, incense, blackcurrants, pepper and distinctive savoury, blood-like nuances. Full-bodied, powerful and luxuriously textured, the palate offers tremendous fruit concentration and mid-palate depth while remaining exceptionally pure and harmonious. The tannins are remarkably sweet and integrated, creating a seamless texture without any hard edges. Jeb Dunnuck considers the 2007 even more elegant and refined than the estate’s legendary 1998 and 2003 vintages, highlighting its extraordinary balance and seemingly endless finish. Now within its recommended drinking window of 2017-2032, this exceptional bottle offers a rare opportunity to experience one of the greatest expressions of Châteauneuf-du-Pape at maturity.
