Domaine du Pegau Cuvée da Capo Châteauneuf-du-Pape Grenache Syrah 2016 (1500ml)

$749

...The 2016 vintage was truly magical for the region, and this Cuvée Da Capo is unquestionably one of the finest vintages for this cuvée ever made, in the same league as, if not surpassing, the 1998, 2003, 2007, and 2010. Sensational notes of cured meats, crème de cassis, crushed violets, ground pepper, tapenade, truffle, and sweet herbes de Provence all soar from the glass and it hits the palate with a massive, full-bodied style that stays seamless, weightless, and as pure as they come. Traditional, classic Châteauneuf Du Pape doesn’t get better. I hate to be the guy who throws out the “best to date” line very often, but this is truly magical stuff. Jeb Dunnuck

I was hoping for more. Maybe should have decanted longer.

95++ too young but very promissing

We obviously drank this bottle too young. Still quite tannic and very clean and primary. But this bottle was dedicated to an appreciated wine friend of ours and his casserole. When do we meet again, Mr. Le Docteur?
