Can it improve with age ?<\/p>\n<p>In search of answers, I decided to taste the &lsquo;tradition&rsquo; cuv\u00e9e of four leading Ch\u00e2teauneuf estates in three outstanding vintages, each a decade apart (2010, 2000 and 1990). [&#8230;] Beaucastel, La Nerthe, P\u00e9gau and Vieux T\u00e9l\u00e9graphe. [&#8230;]<\/p>\n<p>Vieux T\u00e9l\u00e9graphe 2010 &#8211; 96 : The lightest in colour of the 2010 quartet, and a wine of outstanding aromatic complexity (bramble, strawberry, thyme, orange blossom, lavender and honey emerge with time in the glass). On the palate, it is the stoniest wine of the fou, with the finest quality tannins : gathered, shapely, savoury, textured and long. A Ch\u00e2teauneuf which succeeds in being both commanding and refined, and a great Vieux T\u00e9l\u00e9graphe.<\/p>\n<p>Vieux T\u00e9l\u00e9graphe 2000 &#8211; 95 : Slightly deeper in hue than La Nerthe, but the same depth of colour as P\u00e9gau. This wine has, remarkably enough, retained wild flower and lavender notes with a falling honeyed sweetness too. On the palate,, it has better volume and force than La Nerthe, with lower acidity and richer tannins. This is a very complete wine at present, with notes of thyme and meaty umamy framing the refined, stony fruits.<\/p>\n<p>Vieux T\u00e9l\u00e9graphe 1990 &#8211; 96 : A deep, clear brick-garnet in colour. Harmonious, serene aromas\u00a0 suggesting thyme, lavender, pine, tangerine and grilled meats, all smudged together into an enticing pastel wash. Still, too, a wealthy wine on the palate, the ample, plump, structuring tannins and ripe, stately, expressive flavours. No fruit left no, but lots of mushroom, cigar leaf, meat juices &#8211; and that lingering stony warmth which is a hallmark of Vieux T\u00e9l\u00e9graphe.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[&#8230;] Does fine red Ch\u00e2teauneuf need age ?
