    Producer

    The Domaine du Vieux Télégraphe vineyard stretches across sunny slopes, where old Grenache, Syrah, and Mourvèdre vines take root in clay-limestone soils scattered with rounded pebbles. These natural elements, combined with a Mediterranean climate, create ideal conditions for the grapes to ripen. The vines, often over 50 years old, receive meticulous care, resulting in grapes of exceptional quality, guaranteeing a powerful and balanced wine.

    Owner and history

    Today, the estate is run by the fourth generation of the Brunier family, who continue to infuse passion and expertise into every stage of production. The owners are committed to respecting the environment and promoting sustainable viticulture, while remaining true to the traditions that have made Vieux Télégraphe famous. Their vision is clear: to produce wines that tell the story of the terroir, while offering a unique experience with every tasting.

    Vinification and aging

    Winemaking at Domaine du Vieux Télégraphe is an ode to tradition. The harvest is done by hand, guaranteeing rigorous selection of the grapes. After gentle destemming, the grapes ferment in wooden and concrete vats, promoting a gentle extraction of tannins. Aging takes place in oak barrels, some of which are new, for 12 to 18 months. This method allows the wine to refine while preserving its character, thus offering a perfect harmony between power and elegance.
