Lot #388. Domaine du Vieux Télégraphe Châteauneuf-du-Pape La Crau 2009

Description: Consists of 6 Magnums, 1.5L
Score: 94 WA.
"A super showing for this wine, the 2009 Chateauneuf du Pape is meaty and intense, with black olives and black cherries equally sharing the spotlight. Full-bodied, rich and velvety, with a long finish, it may be just a bit coarse in texture, but it delivers happiness in the glass. Drink now or hold; it should drink well for at least another decade. The quality and consistency of the wines here largely speak for themselves. While the focus has always been on producing high-quality wines, what that means has been refined over the years, with an increasing emphasis on terroir expression and inherent elegance." Joe Czerwinski, Wine Advocate, Aug 2019
Lot Location: Orange County
Estimate: $425
