Pegau Châteauneuf-du-Pape Cuvee Reservee - 2013 (750ml) Sonoma Coast it is a head-turningDeep ruby. Potent aromas of ripe dark berries, licorice pastille, woodsmoke, game and garrigue, plus a peppery nuance that adds spiciness and lift. Round and fleshy on the palate, offering intense blackberry and bitter cherry flavors that become livelier and sweeter with air. The very long, energetic, sharply focused finish features fine grained tannins and subtle, lingering notes of dark berries and smoked meat. Vinous 93 points
