1999 Domaine Du Pegau Cuvee Reservee
Following up from my earlier TN. My second bottle from the same case as the original TN. Different experience - the band-aid notes are secondary to a complex nose with strawberry, leather, spice, mint - some meatiness. Medium bodied and dry with prominent tannins balanced by a fine acidity. Not a huge amount of fruit on the palate - but a balanced wine - a pleasure to drink now but I am certain this will 'improve' for at least a further 5 years.....does not have the olfactory splendour of the 2000 or the power and structure of the 2001..
