Domaine Du Pegau Cuvee Reservee 2001 Chateauneuf Du Pape
18.00 Opened and decanted - though no sediment. Translucent ruby. Initial eruption of strawberry jam notes with a bit of animal and elastoplast (?) medium bodied and apparently closed.
18.15 Green pepper notes with a bit of horse and smoke!
18.45 Nose opening up - complex of peppery fruit, road tar and the aforementioned smoke - starting to be a pleasure to sniff.
20.15 - 21.00 Refined and detailed but small in scale - all the parts, but in miniature - will be great in 10years. 94-96pts
