Domaine Pegau, Châteauneuf-du-Pape Cuvée da Capo 2010
Rhône
In original wooden case
Tasting note: Comprised of roughly 85% Grenache and the rest Syrah and other permitted varieties, aged all in foudre, the 2010 Châteauneuf-du-Pape Cuvée da Capo is sheer perfection in a glass. Wine doesn’t get any better. Incredibly rich and concentrated, yet ethereal and even graceful, it boasts off-the-hook aromas of blackberry, liquorice, spice-box, smoked meats and underbrush that continue to change and develop in the glass. Massive and decadent on the palate, yet again, with no weight and a seamless texture, this brilliant effort needs a handful of years in the cellar and will live to see its 30th birthday in fine form. Drink 2016-2040. Robert Parker, Wine Advocate #209, Oct 2013
