Domaine du Vieux Télégraphe, Châteauneuf-du-Pape Blanc 2019
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.
Pernand-Vergelesses Premier Cru 'Sous Frétille', Domaine Clos de la Chapelle 2022
Resurrected by life-long Burgundy lover Mark O’Connell in 2011 and our dear friend Pierre Meurgey, Domaine Clos de la Chapelle is headquartered at the Chateau de Bligny, owned by Pierre and no less than Dominique Lafon. The talent behind the new Domaine is considerable, and the wines are already getting rave reviews from the likes of Allen Meadows (Burghound), Neal Martin & Jasper Morris. We were so impressed by the wines after tasting the 2022s and were surprised to hear that they had little presence in the UK, so it is a real pleasure to offer these wines. "Crunchy green pears, white pepper, camomile, a touch of cereal crops Spicy acids drive grapefruit and orchard fruits, with the merest hint of just ripe peach, extends with saline definition, this shows good drive and tension from start to finish." Tom Harrow, Head Wine Guru
