Telegraphe Chateauneuf du Pape 2004
"Made from the
estate's oldest vines, it is a dense ruby-hued effort with purple
nuances as well as a tight but promising nose of licorice, salty sea
breezes, black cherries, raspberries, plums, and a hint of animal.
Medium to full-bodied, with austere tannin as well as gorgeous fruit, it
requires 3-5 years of cellaring before the tannin is resolved. It
possesses extraordinary elegance and finesse from one of the
appellation's most precocious, warmest terroirs. Anticipated maturity:
2008-2020." Robert Parker (France) $59.99
