Domaine du Pegau 2012 Cuvée Laurence Red (Châteauneuf-du-Pape)

Country: France / Cuvée Laurence
Variety: Rhône-style Red Blend Rhône Valley
Winery: Domaine du Pegau / Châteauneuf-du-Pape

Pegau’s Cuvée Laurence is aged in wood for longer than the Cuvée Resérvée, but is otherwise nearly identical. The 2012 version is full-bodied, dense and richly textured, redolent of liniment, horse tack and garrigue, yet backed by ample cherry and plum fruit. Drink now–2025.
