2021 Châteauneuf-du-Pape “La Crau” HALF BOTTLE

Domaine du Vieux Télégraphe
Discount Eligible $68.00
AT CART MAX

If price were no object and you were looking for a single wine that represents a sense of place, is consistently delicious year in and year out, and can be opened now or cellared for ten years, I’d recommend this one hands down. I did say if price were no object. Which, when considering all the many famous wines that are much pricier, means that you’ve got a real bargain here. It’s a gem, and you won’t be disappointed.

Old cob-webbed wine bottles

Living wines have ups and downs just as people do, periods of glory and dog days, too. If wine did not remind me of real life, I would not care about it so much.
