2021 Vieux Telegraphe Chateauneuf-du-pape La Crau Rouge

2021 is certainly the most elegant renditions in the recent vintages, both mouth-filling and weightless, as luxurious as it is accessible. The palate is in perfect harmony with the nose, with fine elegant red fruits and a bouquet of spice, along with slight garrigue undertones, and tannins that ooze finesse. Made from 70% Grenache, 15% Syrah and 15% Mourvedre- the 2021 breaks the series of series of sunny vintages since 2015, resulting in beautiful balancing acidity giving the wine an equilibrium that will enable a long ageing process.   – 96 points, James Suckling
