Bid on this 6-bottle lot of 1998 Domaine du Vieux Télégraphe "La Crau" Châteauneuf-du-Pape (97JS, 95JD, 95RP, 94DC, 94WE, 94WS). James Suckling: " This amazing Chateauneuf-du-Pape squares the circle of southern richness and spring-like freshness in spite of coming from a very warm and dry vintage. The stony minerality, saltiness and dried flower character wind together to form a dynamic whole, driving this gracefully across the palate. But I must also mention the savory and licorice richness that is so deftly wrapped around them. Very long, salty and velvety finish. Drink or hold." (04/2023)

Included in this lot · 6 bottles

Provenance: Purchased from a reputable source and stored at a professional temperature-controlled wine storage facility until picked up by K&L.

A classic wine from this estate, the 1998 Châteauneuf Du Pape reveals a still youthful ruby/plum hue to go with darker, meaty fruits as well as notes of leather, mushrooms, and Provençal spice. Medium to full-bodied on the palate, with nicely integrated acidity and resolved tannins, the balance is spot on, it has outstanding length, and is just a classy, fully mature Chateauneuf du Pape to enjoy over the coming 5-7 years. (It will keep longer.)
