Château Pape Clément Pessac-Léognan Red Bordeaux Blend 2010
Chateau Pape Clement is one of the oldest properties in Bordeaux. The vineyard was first planted in the 13th century by Bertrand de Goth, the youngest son of anoble family from Bordeaux. He was the Archbishop of Bordeaux and became Pope in 1305, then took the name of Clement V. The vineyard was run by the Bordeaux Archbishopry until the French Revolution. The estate can take pride in the productionof wine in the same vineyards for over 7 centuries.In the 1980s, Bernard Magrez, an entrepreneur passionate about wine, took over the Chateau and built an international reputation for the heavenly bordeaux blend of cabernet sauvignon, merlot, petit verdot and cabernet franc. Since he took ownership, he is dedicated to see that the amazing terroir of the Chateau continue to grow and prosper and express the refinement that has made the wines so well respected and sought after.

Sometimes you just have to make sure that it really is perfect... Château Pape Clément is the oldest estate in Bordeaux having first been planted in 1300 by Pope Clement V when he was the city’s Archbishop and before he became pope. The 2010 vintage was the first Pape Clément to receive 100 points from Robert Parker (“Having tasted it four times in Bordeaux, and rating it perfect three times and 99 the fourth time...”). The flamboyant and soaring aromatics are infectious and completely captivating. It smolders in your glass. Extracted and plump, voluptuously bursting at the seams with blackberry, crème de cassis, and ganache, featuring a heavy seasoning of cedar, cigar box, crushed graphite, baking spice, and espresso. The background is filled with truffle and incense, making the lavish experience that much more captivating.
