There is no wine in the world quite like Pegau, and this is the plush, hedonistic side of it. While much of Châteauneuf-du-Pape modernized — destemming, polishing tannins, buying new oak — Laurence Féraud refuses to change a thing: late harvest, whole clusters left in the vat, and aging in ancient neutral foudres that have seen decades of wine. The 2015 vintage came from a warm, sunny year, and it shows in the wine's flesh: this is the richer, rounder, more voluptuous of the pair, sweet-fruited and generous, with its firm structure cushioned by ripeness. It's the full garrigue experience — lavender, thyme, crushed black olive, leather, cured meat — over dark blackberry. Basically the liquid equivalent of a slow-roasted leg of lamb, and the more immediately open bottle to pour tonight. High in alcohol and packed with soul, so share it.

Antonio Galloni

"Vivid ruby. An exotically perfumed bouquet evokes ripe raspberry, cherry and garrigue, while a suave floral element expands with air. Fleshy, seamless and broad on the palate, offering intense black raspberry and fruitcake flavors that are braced and lifted by a spine of juicy acidity. The floral note builds as the wine opens up and carries through the sweet, strikingly long finish, which leaves behind red fruit liqueur and licorice notes." —Josh Raynolds

"Now that it has been in bottle a while, the 2015 Chateauneuf du Pape Cuvee Reservee is looking even better than I projected based on last year's prebottling sample. It's all violets, cherries, subtle allspice and clove and traditional garrigue notes of lavender and thyme. Full-bodied and rich, it's crazy complex, adding hints of tar and black olives on the long, silky finish. It should evolve beautifully over the next two decades." —Joe Czerwinski

Wine Spectator

94 points

"Solid, with a muscular core of dark fig, blackberry, raspberry paste flavors mixed liberally with anise, savory, tobacco and singed mesquite notes. Shows a sanguine thread on the finish, where everything knits together. This has ample depth and character. Best from 2020 through 2035."

Wine Enthusiast

96 points

"Savory notes of bramble, smoke and leather juxtapose forward plum, cherry and strawberry in this full-bodied wine. It's a penetrating, mouthfilling sip that lingers on the palate, finishing on soft, furry tannins. Approachable already, this concentrated wine should improve through 2025 and hold further."
