Description

The power and complexity of a Pessac-Leognan red wine

The estate

Situated on the doorstep of Bordeaux, Chateau Pape Clement is one of the oldest wine estates in the region, as the first grape harvest took place in 1252. The name of the Chateau Pape Clement estate refers to Pope Clement V who managed his vineyard with great passion before donating it to the archbishop of Bordeaux. At the time, they were referred to as "the vines of Pape Clément". In 1983, Bernard Magrez, the tireless builder and creator of rare wines, bought the estate. Bernard Magrez, who today owns 4 Grands Crus Classes in Bordeaux, injects all his energy and determination in order to elevate Chateau Pape Clement to the very pinnacle of Bordeaux Grands Crus. In 2009, Chateau Pape Clement was bestowed a 100/100 score by the American critic, Robert Parker.

Chateau Pape Clement 2015: Characteristics and tasting tips

The tasting

Color

This wine is a beautiful inky color.

Nose

Aromatic, the nose mixes fruity (burlat cherry, crushed blackberry), peppery and woody (cedar) fragrances.

Palate

This wine seduces the palate with its fine tannins, its structure and its precision. The palate reveals all its concentration as well as a hint of liquorice that gives this wine a certain freshness.
