Niels guessed Pegau on this, and I understand why. Opens up with notes of farmyard, stones, flowers, light red fruit. It’s much leaner than Pegau though, elegant it is, moves along with marks of mint and lavender. I’ve never been disappointed. With Niels at La Contadine.

Served blind. Châteauneuf - I said right off, but I was thinking Pégau. It had the beef blood, certainly, the deep stony feel, but tasting it, it was much lighter, than a Pégau would have been. Fine mineral feel, impressive length. Ready to drink.

Still such a beautiful wine. Provençal herbs on the nose, cherry fruit, earth. Medium bodied, light on its feet, airy fruit with great purity, garrigue balm. It’s probably my favorite Charvin vintage. So easy to drink, such a joy.
