Domaine du Vieux Télégraphe, Châteauneuf-du-Pape, Telegramme, 2022
Télégramme is the second cuvée from the Brunier family’s Domaine du Vieux Télégraphe, sourced from younger vines and less prestigious parcels of the La Crau plateau and surrounding sector. The 2022 vintage contains a blend of Grenache, Syrah, Mourvèdre and Cinsault, cultivated in sun-warmed galets roulés, limestone and red clay soils. It is made with the same precision as the grand vin, though designed for earlier access and approachability.
The scent is characterized by wild cherry, raspberry, violet. The palate is lively yet firmly structured, with clean lines of acidity, fine-grained tannins and a long, saline finish that hints at the site’s stony imprint. This is a superb expression of Châteauneuf-du-Pape that is generous, direct and crafted with the integrity of a major estate, and inviting enough to enjoy now.
Varietal: Grenache, Syrah, Mourvèdre, Cinsault
Appellation: Châteauneuf-du-Pape, Southern Rhône, France
Farming: Organic (practicing)
Style: Red. Expressive, structured and focused
