Note di degustazione
Count me a fan of Pegau's 2020 Châteauneuf du Pape Blanc Cuvée Réservée, a tank-fermented and matured blend of 60% Clairette, 20% Grenache Blanc and 10% each Bourboulenc and Roussanne. Pressed direct to tank with no settling prior to fermentation, it's medium to full-bodied yet has a deliciously plump, succulent texture and enchanting notes of white peaches, pineapple and tangerine, underscored by a hint of chalkiness on the lingering finish.

The 2020 Châteauneuf Du Pape Blanc checks in as mostly Clairette (60%) yet has 20% Grenache Blanc and smaller amounts of other varieties. Lots of melon, pear, and tangerine fruits as well as some chalky minerality define the nose, and it’s medium-bodied, with a pure, focused, vibrant texture, good acidity, and a great finish. It’s going to drink well for 4-6 years and, I suspect, have a graceful evolution beyond that as well. Laurence showed a clear preference for her 2020s during my visit, but I found many of the reds strangely reductive and hard to read.
