Description

Patience is all important in the appreciation of Vieux Télégraphe; it really is the archetype of a wine for the cellar. 2007 is nonetheless such a good vintage that the quality is manifestly evident even in youth. With distinct aromas of black cherry, earth (almost peat) and pepper, the wine transports one to the sensuous warmth of a relaxing Mediterranean afternoon.


Rated 96 by Wine Advocate
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.

Rated 95 by Wine Spectator
#3 Top100, 2009. Packed, in a brawny, muscular style atypical for this lush vintage, with a gravelly undertow to the currant paste, braised fig and dark licorice notes. Picks up even more steam on the finish, with grilled mesquite, mineral and garrigue notes and a long, hot stone-filled finish. Best from 2010 through 2030.
