Domaine Pegau Chateauneuf Du Pape Cuvee Da Capo 750ML 2020 - (Pre-arrival)

Jeb Dunnuck 98 

"Lastly, the 2020 Chateauneuf Du Pape Cuvee 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, Provencal Da Cape that's impossible not to love."-Jeb Dunnuck

Vinous 97 

"Two thousand twenty marks the eighth time that Laurence Feraud has chosen to vinify a Chateauneuf-du-Pape Cuvee Da Capo, which made its debut in the 1998 vintage. A vineyard selection from parcels in La Crau, Escondudes and Monpertuis, all harvested a little bit later than the grapes destined to go into the Cuvee R?serve, this year's blend is 70% Grenache, 7% Syrah, 3% Mourvedre and the rest split among other permitted varieties. Aged in foudre for two years and achieving 15.8% alcohol, it soars from the glass with expressive aromas of dried rose petals, slightly cooked red and black fruits, licorice, dried herbs, tobacco, cured meat and white pepper. Full-bodied, concentrated and built like a brick wall, it will reward bottle age."-Nicolas Greinacher

Wine Advocate 97 

"The 2020 Chateauneuf du Pape Cuvee da Capo is a massively concentrated effort that should ultimately rival the great 2016. The blackberries and blueberries are so vibrant and intense that the wine almost seems sweet, packed with ripe fruit, with hints of mocha and garrigue for savory complexity. Full-bodied, rich and velvety in texture, it finishes with tremendous length and presence."-Joe Czerwinski

James Suckling 98

"A complex nose of dark cherries, damson plums, dried spices, dried thyme, leather, some bark and undergrowth as well. Full body with great volume. Structured and balanced with a creamy core of berries and hints of dark chocolate. Fine texture with plenty of spicy character on the palate. It’s complex and savory with leather and profound aromas developing towards the finish. Still a bit firm at this stage with a brain-rattling finish that almost knocks you off your chair! Majority grenache (70%), 7% syrah, 3% mourvedre and 20% of the other 13 grapes. Better after 2026."-James Suckling
