Domaine du Pegau
Cuvée Réserve Châteauneuf-du-Pape White Rhone Blend

Tart, crisp apple. A little tough following up the Arcadian.

Apr 10th, 2022One of the more interesting whites I’ve had in awhile. I love Domaine du Pegau but had never had a white Rhone blend. It included varietals I have never had before, like Clairette (60%) and Grenache blanc (20%). Despite the young age it had a depth and complexity of flavor like an older chardonnay — Arcadian ‘12 comes to mind. 10/10 would drink again. $70, Davidson’s. Only 4,000 bottles made according to Pegau’s website!
