Domaine du Vieux Telegraphe Chateauneuf du Pape La Crau Rouge 2019

This classic opens with a voluptuous aroma that gives and gives—it is striking because of its charm and floral notes. How many Châteauneufs can boast of those two traits?

Grapes are hand-picked, with double sorting at the vine, then a third sorting in the winery. Gentle pressing and selective destemming, followed by 30-40 days’ traditional fermentation in temperature-controlled stainless-steel and wooden vats. Pneumatic pressing, then systematic malolactic fermentation.

Critical Acclaim

97 James Suckling

If anyone tells you that Châteauneuf is just a big red that’s never elegant, then they need to taste this masterpiece of elegance. So many spicy and savory nuances on the very concentrated but almost perfectly proportioned palate. This is both joyful and serious at the very long, focused finish. Decades of aging potential! Drink or hold.

96 Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

The 2019 Chateauneuf du Pape La Crau is a hugely successful vintage, marked by scents of sun-warmed stones, garrigue, black cherries, and black olives. Full-bodied, rich, and velvety, it finishes with tremendous length and softly dusty tannins, which should help ensure a long, positive evolution.

95 Vinous

Saturated ruby. Deep-pitched red/blue fruit liqueur aromas pick up suggestions of licorice, pipe tobacco, and pungent flowers and herbs with air. In a lush, weighty style, offering expansive black raspberry, cherry cola, singed plum, and fruitcake flavors sharpened by a jolt of spiciness on the back half. For all this wine's richness, it's energetic as well, showing solid, spice- and floral-driven persistence on the finish, which is framed by velvety, even tannins.

94 Jeb Dunnuck

The 2019 Châteauneuf Du Pape is ruby/purple-hued and has the classic translucent color of the Domaine. It's more precise and focused than the Télégramme and will need more time, but it offers a complex, gorgeous bouquet of red and black fruits, crushed stone, wild fennel, and ground pepper. Pure, medium to full-bodied, and elegant, do your best to hide bottles for 5-7 years and it's going to keep for two decades.

93 Wine Spectator

Silky and refined, with focused cherry puree, plum reduction, and raspberry coulis notes racing through, infused subtly with rose petal, warm stone, and lavender hints. Features nice perfume through the finish. Grenache, Mourvèdre, Syrah and Cinsault. Best from 2036.
