Description

Zealously intent on improving on what he has already accomplished, proprietor Bernard Magrez continues to fashion one of Pessac-Leognans most impeccably made wines.....The most concentrated wine of Graves, Pape-Clement may be as profound as the first-growth, Haut-Brion. The deep ruby/purple-colored 2004 exhibits a fragrant bouquet of flowers, camphor, earth, and red as well as black fruits. Medium-bodied, surprisingly textured and rich, with decent acidity, a long finish, and moderate but sweet tannin, it is an exceptionally successful wine. Anticipated maturity: 2008-2020+. 92-94/100 points. (Robert Parker - Wine Advocate - Apr-2005)
