[Chateau Pape Clement Rouge 2020]

Robert Parker rating: 94/100

Adjacent to Chateau Haut Brion, Chateau Pape Clement is located in the outskirts of Bordeaux's Pessac-Leognan and is one of the oldest prestigious estates in Bordeaux.The estate's name comes from Pope Clement V.Clement had great vision in winemaking, and the wines he guided in production had outstanding quality.These high-quality wines were exclusively for use in the papal residence, hence they were called papal wines.It is now owned by the Magrez family.Chateau Pape Clement primarily produces red wine, but it also produces white wine.

Exuding intense aromas of cherry, blackcurrant, smoldering embers, violet, and dark chocolate, this is a medium to full-bodied, rich, and meaty wine, mature, layered, and richly extracted, but deeper and more restrained than the opulent 2019. While it might be an exaggeration to say that this estate's red wines are becoming more restrained, their style is certainly not as desirable as it was a decade ago.

Grape variety:

50% Cabernet Sauvignon, 50% Merlot
