The signature wine of La Crau plateau, Vieux Télégraphe brings depth, mineral finesse and noble fruit into a Châteauneuf of striking purity and masterful balance.
Châteauneuf-du-Pape La Crau 2023 Vieux Télégraphe
The mythical La Crau plateau signs a vintage of masterful balance in 2023, perfectly in keeping with the great wines of the Brunier family. This terroir of rolled pebbles, among the most reputed of Châteauneuf-du-Pape, brings power, warm minerality and immediately recognisable depth. La Crau 2023 presents itself with intense aromaticity of ripe dark and red fruits, garrigue herbs and the characteristic stony notes of the lieu-dit.
On the palate, the wine shows impressive amplitude without losing the tension that defines the greatness of the domaine's recent vintages. The texture is noble, carried by silky tannins of great finesse, with a long, mouth-watering and structured finish. The 2023 style stands out for its remarkable freshness despite the richness of the vintage, thanks to controlled yields and the domaine's traditional approach: hand-harvested grapes, long cuvaisons, ageing in large wooden vats to preserve terroir identity.
A great wine for cellaring, La Crau 2023 will evolve harmoniously over 15 to 20 years, gaining in aromatic complexity and depth. Essential for lovers of authentic Châteauneuf-du-Pape, sun-filled yet perfectly restrained, in one of the purest expressions of the appellation.
