Domaine du Pegau Chateauneuf-du-Pape Cuvee da Capo appears a deep purple color, dark and dense in the glass. The nose is full of ripe black fruits like plum and blackberry, liquorice and black pepper. The palate is focused, linear, deep and powerful, this shows great lenght with well integrated tannins.

Enjoy with rib eye and other grilled steaks, game dishes, and a number of chocolate based dishes.

70% Grenache, 7% Syrah, 3% Mourvèdre, 20% Others varieties aged for 2 years in a 50 hL old oak cask.

The Rare pearl of the Domaine du Pegau, only produced by nature during beautiful years in the colors of great vintages that the Cuvée Da Capo shows itself. A plot selection of Crau, this cuvée is a traditional blend of 13 Châteauneuf du Pape grape varieties with a majority of Grenache, Syrah, Mourvèdre expresses the generosity and character of the hundred-year-old vines planted in a soil of silica sand. Bottled only 7 times, this special wine has been a worldwide success.

As I reported last year, the 2015 Chateauneuf du Pape Cuvee da Capo is impressive. While it's less flamboyantly aromatic than the Cuvée Réservée, it's more powerful and concentrated. Full-bodied and rich, it's loaded with potent raspberry fruit and silky tannins and boasts a finish that won't stop. Hints of roasted meat, lavender and thyme add complexity to the waves of fruit, which wash gently across the palate, exhibiting a lovely soft touch. Anticipated Maturity: 2020-2040
