Tasted out of multiple barrels (all of which rated between 94 and 97), it should be a classic Pegau with aromatics similar to the 2010, yet not quite as much depth or richness. Full-bodied and nicely concentrated, all of the samples showed the freshness of the vintage, with ample mid-palate depth, high quality tannin and loads of character. It should benefit from short-term cellaring and have 15-20 years of longevity. Drink 2016-2032. \u003cstrong\u003eWine Advocate 94-96\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBright purple.  Smoky, spice-accented aromas of blackberry and cherry-cola, with sexy floral and mineral overtones.  Sweet and expansive on the palate, offering an array of red and dark berry preserve flavors complicated by hints of Indian spices and black pepper.  Rich and energetic, with strong finishing thrust, slow-building tannins and a late kick of smoky minerality.  I was looking for some funky gaminess here but didn't find any. \u003cstrong\u003eTanzer 92-94\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Vins Rare","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46037386264815,"sku":"4030","price":350.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0707\/7140\/9135\/files\/pegau_cdp2020-LBL_bb51ba0a-d23c-4e91-b850-eed6f5264a8c.png?v=1772599669","url":"https:\/\/vinsrare.com\/products\/2012-pegau-chateauneuf-du-pape-cuvee-reservee-3-0ltr","provider":"Vins Rare","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
