Chateau Pegau, a renowned producer in the Rhone Valley, crafts the Cotes du Rhone Cuvee Maclura with a blend of traditional Rhone varietals, predominantly Grenache, Syrah, and Mourvèdre. This wine hails from the Cotes du Rhone appellation, known for its diverse terroir and expressive wines. The Cuvee Maclura is vinified using classic techniques, with fermentation in stainless steel to preserve the vibrant fruit character, followed by aging in large oak foudres to add complexity and depth. The wine exhibits a rich flavor profile with notes of ripe red berries, black pepper, and a hint of earthy spice, supported by a balanced acidity and smooth tannins. It pairs beautifully with grilled meats, hearty stews, and aged cheeses.

Made from the classic GSM blend, with a touch of Cinsault, this wine exudes complexity through a seamless blend of black cherry, mushroom, olive and violet. The palate is accessible and savory, with a soft midpalate of plum that trails to a finish of tobacco, cocoa and rose petal. A versatile gastronomic companion, this wine overdelivers for its price.
