Châteauneuf-du-Pape, Domaine de Pegau, Cuvée Reservée--Vintage 2006
Rhône. Domaine-bottled: Feraud
In original wooden case
Tasting note: The 2006 Châteauneuf du Pape Cuvée Reservée shares a similar meaty, gamy character intermixed with abundant notes of kirsch liqueur, ground pepper and Provencal herbs, sweeter tannins than the 2005, a voluptuous, full-bodied mouthfeel, and a long finish. The fruit seems sweeter and I would not be surprised if the 2006 has higher alcohol than the 2005 (although all top vintages here tend to be in the 14.8-15.6 range). This big, rich, impressive effort will age effortlessly over the next 20-25 years. 94 points. Robert Parker, Wine Advocate #191, October 2010
