Description

Domaine du Vieux Telegraph is one of the better known names in Chateauneuf du Pape. The Brunier family has been producing wines at in the appellation for over 100 years. Vieux Telegraph was founded in 1898 by Hippolyte Brunier, the great, grand father of the current owners. They chose the name Vieux Telegraph from an aging signal tower built in 1792 by Claude Chappe. Chappe is the inventor of the optical telegraph, so it’s a very fitting name. The first vintage to be produced and bottled at Vieux Telegraph was the 1900.
Domaine du Vieux Telegraph owns 60.5 hectares of vines located in Chateauneuf du Pape. One of the largest land holders in the Chateauneuf du Pape appellation, they use 54 hectares for the production of red wine. 6.5 hectares are used to to grow white wine grapes. The best parts of the Vieux Telegraph vineyards are situated in the La Crau sector, with its terroir of very rocky soils. Domaine du Vieux Telegraphe is the flagship wine of Les Vignobles Brunier. Vieux Telegraph is always produced from the estates oldest vines. Vieux Telegraph comes from fruit planted in La Crau on a terroir that is littered with large and small rocks and stones.

Plenty of accolades for the 2006 vintage, e.g.

"Concentrated, tannic and structured, this classic styled wine has a core of fresh, peppery, red berries, earth and herbs. A few more years should help the wine develop more nuances.

"...it is a stunningly rich effort boasting an inky/blue/purple color as well as a gorgeous nose of forest floor, coffee, toast, and extravagant levels of black currants and blackberries. Hints of charcoal and flowers add to the wine’s exquisite character...96" WA 02/09
