Description

Yet, understanding the proprietor, Bernard Magrez, validates such claims, sometimes proving true.

Nevertheless, Pape Clement stands as one of Bordeaux's most captivating wines, particularly for its accessible price. Though requiring considerable ageing, it makes an excellent gift or investment. Ratings from Falstaff, Parker, and James Suckling consistently hover between 96 to 98 points, promising a monumental wine in the making.

This Bordeaux exhibits typical Pessac aromas, with pronounced hints of graphite and dark berries. Notes of tobacco and fine wood enhance its complexity. On the palate, it unfolds as juicy and intricate, with a harmonious balance. The ripe tannins offer grip without overpowering, imparting elegance and a refined texture, culminating in a mineral-laced finish.

While enjoyable with ample aeration now, this wine will undoubtedly reveal its true potential in 10 to 20 years.
