From the coravin. Typically expressive pegau nose of spice and red fruit. Young and a bit tight on the palate. raspberries and strawberries with some woody notes. Good balance. Still a tannic beast with a touch of alcoholic heat. I love it but Pegau is always in my wheelhouse. I think this vintage may need a bit more time. This was my first of nine. It’s great but hold.

Touch of Brett, rustic. Against the amarone, this is less in your face, maybe even somewhat closed. but the ripeness of the red fruits comes through. Fruit cake. Cocoa. Seamless tannins though, maybe mostly because of the pairing with food.

Thanksgiving day wine at our daughter’s house. A touch more tannic than the 2017 we also drank.
