Tasting notes : ‘More concentrated and intense than usual, the Châteauneuf du Pape Telegramme 2022 also offers notes of strawberry and cherry. It is quite full-bodied, with abundant tannins and length. I'm sure the quality of this cuvée is small consolation for the total loss of the family's La Crau bottling due to hail, but customers should recognise the Bruniers' efforts to maintain their high standards.’
