Télégramme Châteauneuf-du-Pape 2023
by Domaine du Vieux Télégraphe
A beautifully pure and expressive Châteauneuf-du-Pape from one of the appellation’s most respected families — offering elegance, freshness, and classic Southern Rhône depth without heaviness.
Grenache-led blend with Syrah, Mourvèdre and traditional Rhône varieties
Grown on the famous galets roulés (large round stones) that store heat and aid ripening
2023 is vibrant and aromatic, with excellent balance between ripeness and freshness
Télégramme is the slightly more approachable expression of Vieux Télégraphe, while still carrying serious structure and complexity.
Nose
Ripe raspberry, wild strawberry, cherry compote, garrigue herbs, cracked pepper, subtle liquorice and warm stone minerality
Palate
Medium-full bodied and silky — juicy red fruits, soft spice, herbal notes, hints of dark plum and refined tannins
Finish
Long, fresh, and savoury with lingering fruit and gentle Rhône spice
Beautiful now with a short decant and will continue to evolve gracefully for 8–12+ years.
Outstanding with:
Roast lamb with rosemary and garlic
Braised beef or short ribs
Duck confit or game birds
Mushroom dishes and hearty Mediterranean cuisine
Aged cheeses
Perfect for refined dinners and wine tastings alike.
Crafted by one of Châteauneuf-du-Pape’s benchmark estates
Shows terroir purity and finesse rather than excessive power
A great introduction to top-tier Rhône wines with ageing potential
Elegant yet generous, aromatic yet structured — Télégramme Châteauneuf-du-Pape 2023 delivers classic Rhône character with freshness and sophistication. A superb bottle for both immediate enjoyment and cellaring.
