a touch of patisserie

The racy and intense middle weight flavors possess evident muscle and minerality before concluding in a nicely complex if mildly warm and drying finish

this blend of 46% Cabernet Sauvignon

full-bodied and with very silky tannins

This is most impressive as it manages to deliver stunning intensity and depth of material without any undue heaviness

Pegau, Chateauneuf Du Pape Reservee other_regions a touch of patisserieOne of my favorite wines, the 2012 Chteauneuf du Pape Cuvee Rserve is a classic. Beautiful on the nose, with notions of ground pepper, wild herbs, minerality and smoked plum and dark fruit, it s medium to full bodied, nicely concentrated and has plenty of tannin that comes through on the finish. Similar in style to a lighter weight 2010, drink this beauty anytime over the coming 12 15 years.
