Domaine du Pegau
Châteauneuf-du-Pape White Rhone Blend
Châteauneuf-du-Pape, Southern Rhône, Rhône, France
From a cool vintage, young, bright, enticing.
Ripe yellow apple, green apricot, some white peach but also camomile, white tea, and white flowery notes on some mineral undertone.
On the palate this is medium bodied, with bright fruity acidity, a bit oxidative, tenclode galore with a hint of herby bitterness.
The is is a gorgeous wine. Not obvious and not everyone’s cup of tea, but what a wine!

Beautiful aroma with a complex palate. It was my first CdP white and enjoyed it quite a bit.

Green 🍏 nose almost like a Calvados. Good acidity this is soooooo much better then any of the Rhone white blends in the US. No oak. Excellent.
