Château Pape Clément

The Château Pape Clément is one of the oldest properties in the Bordeaux vineyard, with seven centuries of history and born of the passion of a pope. It was at the end of the 13th century that Bertrand de Goth received from his brother Bréaud de Goth, as a gift for his appointment as archbishop of Bordeaux, a property located in Pessac planted with vines. 

Bertrand de Goth was elected Pope in 1305 and took the name Clement V. He renamed his Domaine Pope Clement. 

Grand Cru Classé in red in the 1953 Graves classification, Domaine has belonged to Bordeaux businessman Bernard Magrez since 1983. With determination and passion, he has led Pape Clément into the sphere of the greatest Bordeaux wines. Respect for the environment, the use of drones to follow the evolution of the vines, made-to-measure vinification, from the vine to the cellar nothing is left to chance to ensure that the potential of this exceptional terroir is expressed.

Le Château Pape Clément is a 63-hectare vineyard planted on an exceptional hilltop of Pyrenean gravel.

Description Château Pape Clément 2019 - White.

A Grand Cru Classé of Pessac Léognan, located not far from the Châteaux Haut Brion and Mission Haut Brion.

The bouquet, a real vivacious concerto on various small red fruits such as blackcurrant and blackberry with a very nice presence of spices and blond Virginia tobacco.

The tannins are very structured and silky, the palate is elegant, concentrated.

Incidentally, the yield that year was only 3,700 bottles per hectare, which only partially explains the extreme power and concentration of this wine in terms of its flavors and aromas.

The color is sparkling purple.

Decant the day before to give it time to express itself and reveal its explosive qualitative nuances of flavors and fragrances.
