95 Points from Jeb Dunnuck
One of my favorite whites from the south of France is Daniel Brunier’s Châteauneuf du Pape Blanc and his 2019 is another stunning effort. Always a blend of Clairette, Roussanne, Grenache Blanc, and Bourboulenc brought up in foudre, this beauty boasts an exotic nose of honeyed peach, quince, crushed citrus, and salty minerality, all with a floral edge. Medium to full-bodied on the palate with flawless balance and beautifully integrated acidity, enjoy this concentrated white anytime over the coming 15-20 years.
 
Winemaker Notes
Télégrammeis a cuvéefrom younger vines with discretion and balance. Nothing is overdone. It is finely chiseled with a marvelous nervosity to it. It seems to have sprung as is from that great rocky plateau.
