CDP Cuvee A Tempo Blanc, Domaine de Pégau 2020

Tasting Notes

On another level, the 2020 Châteauneuf Du Pape Cuvée A Tempo Blanc checks in as one-third each of Clairette, Grenache Blanc, and Roussanne that will spend 18 months in concrete eggs and old barrels, with its malolactic fermentation blocked. It has gorgeous white peach, brioche, honeysuckle, and chalky mineral and earthy nuances on the nose. Concentrated and full-bodied, with bright acidity and a great finish, it’s a riveting Southern Rhône white that I suspect will have decades of longevity.
