"As for the Domaine du Pegau estate wines, the 2006 Chateauneuf du Pape Cuvee Reservee was tasted from multiple foudres, and appears to be better than the 2005 and 2004. The 2006 exhibits gamy, meaty, new saddle leather, kirsch liqueur, black currant, pepper, lavender, and spice notes. The wine is full-bodied, rich, deep, and long. One foudre, which may become a Cuvee Laurence, appears to be of the same quality as the Cuvee Reservee, but the Laurence will be bottled much later than the Reservee,...

Tasting through the different components that will be blended together for the 2006 Chateauneuf du Pape Cuvee Reservee, there is no question that the Ferauds have pulled much more material out of this vintage than many. It is a deep ruby/purple-hued, up-front, sexy Chateauneuf with sweet, silky tannin, elegant, delicious fruit, and medium to full body. This will be a more evolved, quicker maturing vintage than other recent years. The 2006 is unquestionably more sensual and seductive than most young...

Component #1: Inky purple. Expressive aromas of black and blue fruits, Asian spices, smoked meat and lavender. Very fresh in the mouth, with lively blackberry and boysenberry flavors, velvety texture and a late note of cracked pepper. The smokiness carries through the long, sweet finish. Component #2: Full purple. More energetic than the first sample, with bright raspberry, cherry and floral aromas. Racy and focused, offering sweet raspberry and strawberry preserve flavors and tangy minerality. Gains...

Ancestors of father and daughter team Paul and Laurence Feraud farmed olives, cherries and grapes in Chateauneuf-du-Pape dating back to 17th century. methods established centuries ago carry on in current vintages, creating robust, concentrated, traditional red and white wines. Prior to Laurence joining her father in business in 1987, Paul sold much of wine to negociants. Paul himself learned trade from his mother, a self-taught vigneron of local repute, who bottled wines under family's previous label, Domaine Feraud et fils. Comprised of mostly old vine Grenache (80%), Feraud's Chateauneuf-du-Pape includes all 13 of regionally allowed grape varieties. Wine Spectator rating: 93.

Robert Parker, The Wine Advocate The three lots of 2005 Chateauneuf du Pape Cuvee Reservee (again, no Cuvee da Capo was produced in this vintage) had not yet been blended. Tasting through all of them, they scored between 91 and 94, so I suspect this offering will be similar, qualitatively, to the 2006. But, it is a very different style of wine. It reveals a dark ruby/purple hue along with notes of tar, roasted meats, and Provencal herbs, which give it a certain savage/animal character. The wine is...

Robert Parker, The Wine Advocate One of the finest efforts of the vintage is the 2004 Chateauneuf du Pape Cuvee Reservee. There is no Cuvee da Capo in 2004, and as my commentary will make clear, they decided not to produce one in 2005. The 2004 Chateauneuf du Pape Cuvee Reservee has a dark plum/garnet/purple color and a big, sweet nose of kirsch liqueur, lavender, roasted herbs, and beef juices intermixed with some licorice and spice. It is full-bodied, rich, deep, spicy, and dense with some tannins...

Wine Spectator 12/15/01 94/100 Domaine du Pégau Châteauneuf-du-Pape Cuvée Réservée rouge is a red, wine from the Rhone Valley in France. Produced by winery Domaine du Pegau in 1999. Domaine de Pegau, Chateauneuf-du-Pape, Cuvee Reserve, 1999: Full bodied, with abundant but smooth tannins, deep purple in color, with deep and complex black fruits, minerals, damp forest leaves and a long, almost sweet finish, this delicious wine will drink well now until 2012 – 2015. Score 93. (Tasted 22 Oct 2002)

Description: "...huge nose of truffles, tar, super-ripe black fruits, licorice, tobacco and spices is profound...sweet, expansive fruit, a super-concentrated, powerful, tannic taste, lavish amounts of glycerin and body...destined to have 20-25 years of evolution..."RP

The 2001 Chateauneuf du Pape Cuvee Reservee is a prodigious effort. The dark plum/ruby/garnet color is followed by a spectacular smorgasbord of aromas, including roasted meats, lavender, ground pepper, and thick, sweet blackberry and brandy-macerated cherries. Full-bodied, dense, and chewy, it has high levels of tannin, a huge finish, and a monster upside. Although less voluptuous than the 2000, the 2001 looks to be potentially the longest-lived and finest Cuvee Reservee since the wonderful duo of...

Domaine du Pegau Chateauneuf-Du-Pape Cuvee Reservee 750ML 2006

"The 1998 Chateauneuf du Pape Cuvee Laurence, the finest example of this offering I have yet tasted (even better than the 1989, 1990, and 1995), spent four years in small barrels prior to being bottled unfiltered. A spectacular effort, it is a monument to great Chateauneuf du Pape. A dense plum/purple color is followed by aromas of sweet black fruits intermixed with tobacco, cedar, pepper, and fruitcake. Powerful, rich, and concentrated, with a finish that lasts for nearly a minute, this wine is...
