My first bottle of the 2016 and I was so excited to share it with my old friend Charlie who has been doing some great things curating the collection at the Cellar in Lincoln. Upon first pour, it was obvious that this needed air so Charlie grabbed a decanter and he pulled a sublime bottle of 2006 Pierre Moncuit to sip on and contemplate while we waited for the Pegaü to show up to the party (he also saved a small glass of Hubert Lignier Chambolle-Musigny “Les Baudes” that reminded me that I now have a sickness for H. Lignier and if it ever spreads to other producers in Burgundy, I’m in huge trouble). I digress.

Back to this latest release from Ms. Feraud. After about 45min of air this really started to open and whoa…what a stunner. Red cherries and brambles, asian spice, garrigue, not nearly as funky as Pegaü can be sometimes. In fact, this came across fairly clean. Massive structure that continued to slowly lower its defenses as time went by but cellar time is probably what’s needed most. Long, loooong finish. This is already a very impressive wine and further evidence that 2016 reminds me so much of 2010; so much quality throughout the Southern Rhône with the very best producers creating monumental wines. This is one of them. I have little doubt that the 2016 Pegaü will deliver pleasure for decades to come. — 6 years ago

Wine rev from Lincoln wines. Tasted like a fruity barbera. Great structure but there’s more texture and flinty notes that compliment the fruit. Also, the fruit itself is an uninteresting mash up. I’d drink it again but it’s less elegant given it’s all pleasing nature — 7 years ago

That vintage is not a misprint. Abraham Lincoln was president when is cognac was produced. And yes we are indulging in it now. Words just can't describe this. All I can say is thank you Benjy! Words cannot describe this so I will leave it to your imagination!!!! Yes it is better then you can ever predict — 8 years ago

Matt Courtney Chardonnay. Big, buttery, oakey. Great texture; beautiful mouthfeel. Closest thing to Marcassin you'll find. I'll go out on a limb here and say its better than Aubert. I'd like to taste next to Ferren, but I have none as they don't ship to to the Land Of Lincoln (Really?). I also am aware that this style is frowned upon by the minerality, un-oaked crowd, but I'm not a fan of that style. Grab some @Dag Zapatero @Bill Bender let me know what you think. — 9 years ago

Big words: best red wine PM has ever made. So joyous and energetic! The kind of wine that takes you out of conversation to remark on how delicious the wine tastes at every sip! Light sparkly texture is right up my alley personally. Lovely tart fruit and some forest notes. I would find it hard to grow tired of this wine, could drink a bottle every day. — 6 years ago

A really tasty and surprising white that is initially quite tropical but finishes with more precision than one might have expected. This is the second wine I've ever had from Vermont and am impressed. Thanks @Julia Geisler for sharing. — 7 years ago

Pours quite light. Acid fruits on the nose. Just a bit of cream in the mouth, enough to leave an impression. Paired with Lake Erie pickerel and Ontario strawberries. — 7 years ago
