Chateau Pegau  2016 Cuvée Sétier Cotes du Rhone Rouge
60% Grenache, 20% Mourvèdre, 20% Syrah | Alc: 14.0%
Côtes du Rhône, France

Winemaker’s notes:
Classified as Côtes du Rhône Village, the Cuvée Sétier named after an old measure of wine averaging four litres or 8 pints comes as the image of Côtes du Rhône Village. Generous with pronounced tannins born from a blend of Grenache, Mouvèdre & Syrah planted on hillsides on rolled pebbles. Character and aging wine.
Pairs well with ith cooked red meats, especially lamb with thyme and baby lamb with spicy couscous, serve at 17°C.

Critical Acclaim:
“The 2016 Cotes du Rhone Villages Cuvee Setier is a blend of 60% Grenache and 20% each Mourvèdre and Syrah, with an average vine age of 50 years. Violets and raspberries mark the nose, along with hints of leather and mint. Still richly tannic, full-bodied and velvety in feel, with a long finish, it looks to have the ability to age for at least a decade from the vintage.”  92 Pts – Wine Advocate
