12/9/2023 - tpbrown5 Likes this wine: 92 pointsIt’s delicious wine, a bit more opulent than a typical Hanzell Chardonnay, more California if you will. |

2013 Domaine du Vieux Télégraphe Châteauneuf-du-Pape La CrauRed Rhone Blend more |
11/5/2023 - tpbrown5 Likes this wine: 93 pointsLots of earth and mineral on the finish, a bit of pencil shavings. Not a lot of fruit (which isn’t a bad thing). Almost funk, stewed peppers (but that’s what we ate along side). It’s delicious. If you have a bottle, drink it. |
