Châteauneuf-du-Pape, Domaine Pegau, Cuvée Capo--Vintage 2000
Rhône, Domaine-bottled: Feraud
Tasting Note: The 2000 Châteauneuf-du-Pape Cuvée da Capo is a monument to old vine Grenache as well as traditionally made Châteauneuf-du-Pape. Boasting a natural alcohol of 16 this wine, which was bottled in spring, 2003 because its fermentation was extremely slow, has virtually everything you could ever want in a profound Châteauneuf-du-Pape. The colour is inky/ruby/purple to the rim. The extraordinary nose reveals aromas of kirsch liqueur, new saddle leather, animal fur, Provencal herbs, spice box, licorice, and a salty sea breeze character. On the palate, the wine is enormous, with an unctuosity, thickness, and purity that must be tasted to be believed. Robert Parker, Wine Advocate 151 (Feb 2004)
