Domaine du Pegau Chateauneuf du Pape Cuvée Réservée 1998 600CL

Domaine du Pegau’s Châteauneuf-du-Pape Cuvée Réservée 1998 is a benchmark bottle from one of the Southern Rhône’s most admired estates. Built around a classic old-vine blend led by Grenache, it combines power, complexity, and remarkable depth, showing why this cuvée has earned such a loyal following. The 1998 vintage captures the traditional Pegau style at its most expressive, with the kind of structure and longevity that has made this wine a reference point for collectors.

Makuprofiili
In the glass, this Châteauneuf-du-Pape shows a deep, mature ruby to garnet colour, hinting at its years of evolution. The bouquet opens with blackberry, dark plum, black tea, black pepper, and a lift of fresh rosemary and thyme, gradually giving way to more savoury notes of leather and sandalwood as it breathes. The palate is generous and full-bodied, with dark fruit framed by layers of clove, white pepper, and the same aromatic herbs found on the nose. Despite its power, the wine retains impressive finesse and balance, with mature tannins and a long, lingering finish. It is drinking beautifully now, but still has the structure to continue ageing gracefully for many more years.

Viininvalmistus
Domaine du Pegau follows a traditional approach in Châteauneuf-du-Pape, working with a blend of multiple grape varieties, though Grenache provides the clear backbone of the cuvée. The grapes are fermented in cement tanks without added yeast, and whole clusters are pressed to preserve authenticity and texture. After fermentation, the wine is aged for around two years in older oak barrels, allowing the fruit, spice, and mineral complexity to develop without excessive oak influence.

Ruoka & tarjoilu
This is a natural match for rich dishes such as roasted lamb, game, duck confit, braised beef, or hearty Provençal cuisine with herbs and garlic. It also pairs beautifully with mature cheeses. Serve at around 16–18°C, and decanting is recommended to let the wine fully open and show its layered aromatics and mature character.
