A classic white Châteauneuf-du-Pape from the Plateau de la Crau, made from a traditional blend of Clairette, Grenache Blanc, Roussanne and Bourboulenc. The fruit is hand-harvested and vinified with care, with fermentation and ageing in a mix of barriques, demi-muids and large foudres to preserve balance and freshness while adding texture and depth. Domaine du Vieux Télégraphe is one of Châteauneuf-du-Pape’s benchmark estates. Owned by the Brunier family since 1898, the domaine farms its vineyards on the stony Crau plateau, a terroir renowned for producing wines of structure, longevity and clarity. While celebrated for its reds, the estate’s whites are equally serious expressions of place, combining Mediterranean richness with poise and restraint.
