For more than 120 years, the Domaine du Vieux Télégraphe has been the property of the Brunier family, an estate renowned for five generations with vines of an average age of 60 years, located on the mythical Crau plateau in Châteauneuf-du-Pape: here we find a thick layer of rounded pebbles, dating from before the formation of the Rhône Valley, which give the wines of the Vieux Télégraphe this very special minerality.

Son of the founder Henri Brunier, Hippolyte planted his first vines on the Crau plateau where, in 1821, Claude Chappe, inventor of the optical telegraph, installed one of his relay towers. It was Jules, Hippolyte's son, who gave the estate the name "Old Telegraph".

The estate has adopted a reasoned, organic and sustainable agriculture: traditional ploughing, manual disbudding, green harvesting, "mating disruption" technique tocombat harmful moths, Eudemis and Cochylis, manual harvesting. No irrigation is carried out on the vineyard.

The Domaine du Vieux Télégraphe produces 5 red and white wines:
- In red, Télégramme from the youngest Grenache vines (40 years old on average), Veux Télégraphe made from 65% Grenache vines with an average age of 65 years, complemented by Mourvèdre, Syrah, Cinsault and Clairette, on the Crau plateau, and Piedlong made from 90% very old Grenache vines (70 years old) in the locality of Piedlong and the locality of Pignan, one of the few sites with a sandy soil on the surface and resting on a mixture of clay-sand and friable stone called "Pierre du Gard".
- In white, the Vieux Télégraphe from Clairette at 40%, Grenache blanc at 25%, Roussane at 25% and Bourboulenc at 10% and the Clos la Roquète at a place called La Roquète, adjacent to the localities of Pignan and Piedlong, each from a third of Roussane, Clairette and Grenache blanc.
