92pts James Suckling

A delicious, juicy and mellow red with notes of strawberries, raspberries and mild spices. It's medium-bodied with fine tannins. Well-rounded, creamy and fruit-driven, with a subtle touch of spices. Vivid and well done.

Winemaker Notes

For decades, the Brunier brothers of Domaine du Vieux Télégraphe have produced a world-class rouge from the southern Rhône Valley’s most prestigious appellation, Châteaneuf-du-Pape. With their Pigeoulet, they prove just as capable of mastering the hedonistic country quaffer, which teems with northern Provence’s most irresistible qualities: the succulent red and black fruit, stony core, hint of black olive, and garrigue.

Blend: 80% Grenache, 10% Syrah, 5% Carignan, 5% Cinsault
