2023 Vieux Télégraphe Chateauneuf-du-Pape Blanc
2023 Vieux Télégraphe Chateauneuf-du-Pape Blanc
Only about five percent of the wine produced in Châteauneuf-du-Pape is white, making this bottling a rare and beloved treat for its unique point of view in a sea of reds. The Clairette-based 2023 vintage is among the freshest in memory and one of the most complex whites on our shelves. Gone are the days when I crave only austere white wines! The silkiness and richness of a bit of flesh, the honeyed notes-it's a dream for the senses.

97pts JD - The 2023 Châteauneuf Du Pape Blanc stopped me in my tracks and has an incredible sense of class. Fabulous stone fruits, honeyed orange, white flowers, and a beautiful sense of minerality all define this brilliant white, and it has nicely integrated background oak, medium to full body, a pure, layered, elegant mouthfeel, and a great finish. It's a “wow” white that brings both richness and freshness. Drink bottles over the coming decade.--Jeb Dunnuck
