Vieux Telegraphe Telegramme Châteauneuf-du-Pape 2021, A.C. Châteauneuf-du-Pape, France
Passed down through six generations since 1891, Vieux Telegraphe has been producing outstanding wines in the Southern Rhône’s Châteauneuf-du-Pape. The vineyards are located on the famous La Crau plateau, where the high altitude and wine protects the vines against frost and disease, often allowing early ripening. Moreover, the estate benefits from large, heat-retaining stones called galets roulés, which gives the wines a beautiful minterality.
Spice, plums, herbs and a touch of leather balanced with soft, ripe tannins and a long, silky finish.
