| Over het wijnhuis | Château Pape Clément, gevestigd in Pessac-Léognan, is vernoemd naar een Paus. Paus Clément V was namelijk groot wijnliefhebber en had niet alleen een vinger in de pap bij de ontwikkeling van Châteauneuf-du-Pape, maar was begin 1300 ook eigenaar van Domaine de la Mothe, de voorloper van Château Pape Clément. Met een geschiedenis van 750 jaar is Château Pape Clément niet meer weg te denken uit de wijnwereld. |

| Awards | “The 2018 Pape Clement is a blend of 66% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot and 4% Cabernet Franc, aged for approximately 18 months in oak barriques, 60% new. Medium to deep garnet-purple colored, it rolls out of the glass with vibrant notes of crushed black cherries, stewed black plums and black raspberries, followed by suggestions of violets, star anise, cardamom and camphor with a waft of iron ore. The medium to full-bodied palate delivers exhilarating energy, offering crunchy black berry and exotic spice layers with a solid frame of ripe, grainy tannins and loads of freshness, finishing long and mineral tinged. Still very primary, it will need a good 5 years in bottle to deliver that next-level experience and will drink over the next 30+ years.” – Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate ”Aromas of wild blackberries, blueberries, dried lavender, cloves and eucalyptus with gravel and cocoa butter. It’s full-bodied with firm, powdery tannins. Polished and creamy with a core of ripe fruit that evolves to herbs, spices and chocolate. Fantastic concentration and seamless integration. Try from 2024.” – James Suckling ”A warm mocha note drapes elegantly over a prodigious core of steeped red and black currant and blackberry fruit while waves of black tea, anise, fruitcake and applewood fill in on the finish. Structure is serious and well-imbedded. Really well put together. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Cabernet Franc. Best from 2025 through 2038.” – Wine Spectator ”52% Cabernet Sauvignon, 43% Merlot, 3% Cabernet Franc, 2% Petit Verdot. Black core with crimson rim. Darkest of black fruits, dark in oak spice too and yet there is also an inviting top note of red fruits that adds unexpected charm. Oaky char and sweetness on the palate, really generous in smooth dark fruit and smooth, firm tannins. Still needs time for the oak to recede but the fruit is moreish and the finish fresh.” – Jancis Robinson ”An oasis of green, this grand estate within the Bordeaux suburbs has produced a powerful, massively textured wine. It also has the fruit richness to partner the structure along with a fresher streak of acidity. The wine will age, so drink from 2026.” – Wine Enthusiast ”The 2018 Pape Clément is such a beautiful and inviting wine. Silky, perfumed and layered, the 2018 shows the more restrained, vibrant style that has become the norm here in recent years. Red/purplish fruit, lavender, rose petal and spice are front and center, while the oak - in the past so strong here - is really dialed back. The 2018 is going to be a fascinating wine to follow in the cellar over the next several decades. The purity of the flavors is just striking.” – Vinous ”This is excellent, as it was en primeur. Dense, dark fruits and deep cocoa pod. These are ripe fruits but they are balanced and it has an attractive mint leaf finish. A yield of 37hl/ha. Two-thirds new oak. Drinking Window 2026 – 2044.” – Decanter |
