Lot #777. Domaine du Pégau Châteauneuf-du-Pape Cuvée Réservée 2000

Description: Consists of 1 Bottle, 0.75L
Score: 95 RP.
"The 2000 Chateauneuf du Pape Cuvee Reservee may be one of the few 2000s that is better than its 1998 counterpart. A deep ruby/purple color is accompanied by sweet aromas of creme de cassis, kirsch liqueur, cedar, licorice, and pepper. It smells like an open-air Provencal market. Sweet, fat, opulent, and voluptuous, with fabulous fruit concentration, sweet tannin, and a long, 45+ second finish, this powerful, deep, seamless 2000 is impeccably well-balanced. A tour de force in traditional Chateauneuf du Pape . . ." Wine Advocate #145, Feb 2003
Lot Location: Orange County
Estimate: $140
