Domaine du Pegau, Chateauneuf-du-Pape Cuvee Da Capo 2020

Lastly, the 2020 Châteauneuf Du Pape Cuvée Da Capo is a bigger, richer wine, as well as a more youthful, focused, behemoth of a 2020. Powerful notes of ripe black cherries, darker currants, ground pepper, charcuterie, and flower incense are just some of the notions here, and it''s full-bodied, with a concentrated, opulent mouthfeel, ripe tannins, and a great finish. It doesn''t match the all-time greats of this estate, but it’s a more approachable, opulent, undeniable sexy, Provençal Da Cape that''s impossible not to love.
