About this Item
The Feraud family of Domaine Feraud has their history in winemaking dating back to 1670. In 1964, Paul Feraud began producing and selling his own wine, but it was his daughter, Laurence, who convinced him to create an independent family estate which was founded in 1987 and named Domaine du Pegau. Pegau is considered one of the best estates in Châteauneuf-du-Pape and their traditional-styled wines are considered some of the best in the world.
Critics Ratings
‘Really distinctive, with a gutsy, chewy frame supporting clove, blood orange, coffee, brick dust, macerated currant fruit, warm fig and hoisin sauce notes. The long, grippy finish has lots of mesquite, braised chestnut and spice notes. Best from 2010 through 2030. 500 cases made.’ - James Molesworth, Wine Spectator, 95/100 (Jun 2008)
‘More evolved, the 2004 Châteauneuf-du-Pape Cuvée Laurence gives up copious kirsch, saddle leather, exotic spice and underbrush in its medium to full-bodied, supple and nicely textured profile. Nearing maturing but should evolve gracefully for another decade.’ - Jeb Dunnuck, Wine Advocate, 93/100 (Feb 2014)
