Lot #492. Domaine du Vieux Télégraphe Châteauneuf-du-Pape La Crau 2007

Description: Consists of 1 Bottle, 0.75L
Score: 96+ RP.
"The 2007 Vieux Telegraphe may be the greatest wine made at this property since the 2005 and 1998. Dense ruby/purple-tinged with an exquisite nose of salty sea breezes, licorice, ground pepper, jammy black cherries, black currants, figs, and plums, this is a full-bodied, rich, Provencal-styled offering with lots of sweet, ripe tannin. It is surprisingly accessible for a Vieux Telegraphe (this wine normally shuts down several years after bottling), but it should have great longevity (25+ years) given its power, full-bodied mouthfeel, and enormous length and richness. This is a brilliant effort from brothers Frederic and Daniel Brunier." Wine Advocate #185, Oct 2009
Lot Location: Orange County
Estimate: $60
