Description of Châteauneuf-du-Pape Blanc "La Crau"

Estate

The Domaine du Vieux Télégraphe is a key reference in Châteauneuf-du-Pape, renowned for the consistent quality of its wines. This historic estate, located in the southern Rhône Valley, benefits from an exceptional terroir that allows the authentic expression of the Mediterranean climate.

Vineyard

Situated on varied soils composed of rolled pebbles, sand, and clay, the vineyard lies in the Southern Rhône region. This geological diversity contributes to the aromatic complexity of the wines, promoting a perfect balance between freshness and ripeness.

Wine

This 2023 Châteauneuf-du-Pape white is a wine of great elegance, marked by its blend of traditional white grape varieties: Clairette, Grenache Blanc, Bourboulenc, and Roussanne. It perfectly illustrates the finesse and depth typical of this terroir, with a strong ability to reflect the freshness and richness of the 2023 vintage.

Vintage

The 2023 vintage is characterized by a favorable balance between warm conditions and some storm episodes, promoting optimal grape ripeness. The wine thus shows beautiful freshness accompanied by a complex aromatic expression, promising a harmonious olfactory and gustatory profile.

Vinification & Aging

The vinification is carefully carried out to preserve purity of aroma and the wine’s natural liveliness. Aging is mainly done in stainless steel tanks, ensuring perfect temperature control and optimal preservation of fresh and fruity aromas.

Grape Variety

Clairette, Grenache Blanc, Bourboulenc, Roussanne

Characteristics & Tasting

Tasting

  • Appearance: Pale yellow with green highlights, clear and bright.
  • Nose: Intense and fresh, combining notes of white flowers, citrus fruits such as lime and mandarin, with subtle hints of gunflint.
  • Palate: Crisp and balanced, the palate reveals flavors of yellow peach, ripe pear, and a fine minerality that adds length and liveliness.

Serving

Serve chilled between 10 and 12°C. Decanting for 30 minutes is recommended to fully express the wine's aromatic complexity, especially when young.

Food Pairings

Ideal with roasted turbot served with beurre blanc sauce, green asparagus risotto, grilled red mullet with vinaigrette, and a cheese platter featuring Époisses, 24-month aged Comté, and Brillat-Savarin.

Occasions

Perfect for an important business lunch, a spring family celebration, or a refined dinner with friends.

Aging Potential

Can be enjoyed now but will gain complexity and breadth over 8 to 12 years, reaching its peak between 2028 and 2033.
