Châteauneuf-du-Pape Cuvée da Capo 2007 from Domaine du Pégau is a powerful red wine produced from old-vine parcels across the appellation. The hot, dry summer yielded small berries and high concentration, reflected in the wine’s dense aromas of black cherry, garrigue herbs and cured meat. The palate is broad and layered, with ripe tannins supporting dark fruit and spice. Extended ageing in large oak foudres has integrated the components without masking the wine’s natural warmth. The magnum format has preserved freshness, allowing gradual evolution and a long, savoury finish with mineral definition.
