Ripe Cherry

According to importer Kermit Lynch, “One cannot think of Châteauneuf-du-Pape, the most celebrated cru of the southern Rhône, without thinking of Domaine du Vieux Télégraphe.” The Brunier family has farmed the La Crau plateau for over a hundred years to make their iconic grenache forward wines.

The wines of Vieux Telegraphe are classic, displaying strength, rusticity, earthiness, and tremendous longevity like a great Chateauneuf should. The blend of old-vine fruit from La Crau, imparts incredible depth, concentration, and fresh minerality. Their goal, which they uniformly achieve, is to find a harmony between aromatic complexity, tannic structure, and richness. A stupendous wine.
