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 is legendary in its own right, having been rooted to the enigmatic plateau known as “La Crau” for over one hundred years. The wines of Vieux Télégraphe evoke the concept of terroir in its purest form: they reflect their dramatic climate, the rough terrain that defines the soil, their full sun exposure at a higher altitude, the typicity of the varietals with an emphasis on Grenache, and of course, the influence of their caretakers, the Brunier family. For many, La Crau is Châteauneuf-du-Pape’s grandest cru. 

Tasting Notes

Intensely fragrant wine with aromas of fresh red fruit and garrigue. This is a robust red with deep ripe fruit flavours, earth, garrigue, anise, spice and minerality.  Enjoy with roast meats, game, hearty stews and dishes that include rosemary, sage, thyme.   

Method

Telegramme is the second label of Vieux Telegraphe (the label is literally reversed). It is made with organically grown grapes from the estates younger vines (about 35 years old) .  The vines grow on alluvial deposits, limestone, silica, and red clay with galets roulés.  This blend is 80% Grenache, 10% Syrah, 6% Mourvèdre, 4% Cinsault.  The wine rests in cement tank for 10 months, and then ages for another 6 months in foudres.
