Domaine du Pegau, Chateauneuf du Pape, Cuvee Reservee 2016
95 CellarTracker
This has a lot of black fruit, like blackberry and pepper. Rich, intense and juicy, with a long finish and excellent sweet fruit and structure. This vintage is really great for Pegau. Every sip is a treat. But keep it cool, if its too varm, it becomes heavy. 10/31/2025

Reminding me of a fresher version of the 2003, the 2016 Chateauneuf Du Pape Cuvée Reservée is another magical wine from Laurence Feraud that could come from nowhere else. I still remember tasting (and loving) this beauty from barrel. It doesn’t quite have the sheer over-the-top decadence of the 2003, but it does have more elegance, while not giving up an inch with regard to texture and opulence. Dark ruby/plum-hued with a monster display of Provençal goodness in its garrigue, lavender, violets, kirsch, plums, and Asian spices, this full-throttle, ripe, sexy Châteauneuf du Pape has silky tannins, flawless balance, and a heavenly texture. It’s going to benefit from 2-4 years of bottle age and drink well for at least 20-25 years. 04/2020
