Stunning concentration of perfectly ripe blackcurrants here with a delicate whiff of vanilla oak and extremely fine tannins that are almost perfectly integrated on the seductive and delicate palate, right through the almost literally breathtaking, super-long and very polished finish. Try from 2022.
96 Robert Parker
Blended of 60% Merlot, 36% Cabernet Sauvignon, 3% Petit Verdot and 1% Cabernet Franc, the 2016 Pape Clement has a deep garnet-purple color and quite a serious, earthy nose with truffles, tilled soil, underbrush and smoked meats over a cassis, baked plums and redcurrants core plus a touch of lavender. Medium to full-bodied, firm and grainy, the palate is built like a brick house, supporting muscular black fruit and earthy notions and finishing very long and mineral laced.
96 Wine Spectator
This takes a slightly different tack than many of its Pessac colleagues, relying less on bramble and tar and more on alluring toast, with mocha, anise, wood spice and black tea notes draped liberally over the core of sappy kirsch and cherry preserve flavors. Plush and suave through the finish, though this needs a bit of time for the wood elements to be fully integrated with the fruit. For fans of the flashier, cashmere-textured style. Best from 2023 through 2037. 12,500 cases made. — JM

Château Pape Clément
Château Pape Clément figure parmi les vignobles les plus anciens de Bordeaux listés Grands Crus Classés. Fort d’une histoire qui remonte au 13ème siècle, ce château réputé a été fondé par Bertrand de Goth, archevêque de Bordeaux. Quelques décennies plus tard, en 1305, celui-ci est devenu Pape sous le nom de Clément V, d’où le nom du château. En 1939, la famille Montagne s’est portée acquéreur du domaine, aujourd’hui propriété du grand connaisseur en vins Bernard Magrez, qui le dirige. Implantée discrètement dans la banlieue de Pessac, cette propriété d’une superficie de 32,5 hectares se voue essentiellement à la production de vins rouges, seuls 2,5 hectares étant encépagés de blancs. En rouge comme en blanc, les vins se positionnent parmi les meilleurs de l’appellation. Le Pape Clément rouge se présente comme un vin dense mais accessible, tandis que le Pape Clément blanc – élaboré en quantités confidentielles – s’avère élégant et d’une complexité impressionnante avec des notes crémeuses de bois neuf. Le Château peut s’enorgueillir de ses rouges – parmi les meilleurs de Pessac-Léognan – et continue de révéler l’essence de son terroir avec finesse.
