Pegau Chateauneuf-du-Pape "Cuvee Reservee" 2007 6.0L bottle - Vins Rare

94-96 WA

Notes:

The 2007 Chateauneuf du Pape Cuvee Reservee, still aging in foudres,was tasted from different lots. The most promising wine made here sincethe 2003, it is a full-bodied effort revealing dense, concentratedfruit, and high tannins that still need to be resolved. It will requiresome bottle age to round into drinking shape. The color is a denseplum/purple, and the wine shows considerable licorice, lavender,roasted herb, and meat juice characteristics, as well as a texture ofbeef blood no doubt attributable to the old vines from which it ismade. The fruit dominates, and the wine is intense, rich, andfull-bodied. It will undoubtedly need 3-4 years of bottle age after itsrelease, and should last 20-25 years based on the fact that their oldervintages (i.e., 1979, 1981, 1983, and 1985) are all still in terrificcondition.
