EN PRIMEUR DISCOUNT VALID UNTIL 1/12/2025 - DELIVERY SPRING 2026

The Château Pape Clement Rouge Grand Cru Classé de Graves has once again put a very nice wine on the menu and now rivals the Premier Crus in terms of level (fortunately not yet in terms of price, but this will certainly happen). This flagship of Mr. Bernard Magrez is de-stemmed completely manually, berry by berry, and only the berries with an intact skin are added to the wine. A huge amount of personnel (more than 20 people for the de-cluttering), but with an extraordinary result.

The 2023 Pape Clément evokes aromas of dark wild berries, herbs, licorice and mulberries, followed by a medium to full, round and spacious palate with structuring tannins and a firm, concentrated mid-palate that transitions into a long, fruity finish. Less oak than previous years, this is a more contemporary expression of this great terroir. It is a blend of 50% Merlot, 45% Cabernet Sauvignon, 3% Cabernet Franc and 2% Petit Verdot.
