2018 Domaine du Vieux Télégraphe Châteauneuf-du-Pape
Jeb Dunnick
95 ~
The grand vin is the 2018 Châteauneuf-du-Pape. It's an elegant version of this cuvée, offering beautiful blueberry, raspberry, crushed violet, graphite, and crushed rock-like minerality. Rich, medium to full-bodied, and balanced, it’s polished and seamless, yet has plenty of tannins as well as richness, and is going to evolve beautifully.
