I recently received a case of 2007 Pegau Res. I had never tried that year and was just blown away by the quality today . Their wines are great on release and age for decades. Along with Beaucastel no other CdP compares for complexity and ageability. I came into CdP late and my first was 1989 Beaucastel then 1997/98/99 2000 Pegau, 2001, 2002 (yes there was a 2002 unfortunately) and then went elsewhere. I;m back to CdP now and am presently drinking the 2001 (just a few left) and 2007 and 2019. My 2020 will be delivered in Sept. I think the reason I love these CdP is the Brett. That funky barnyardy note , if not too strong, is lovely and most if not all other CdP are all about fruit, which is a bit boring to me. What do others think ?
