Bordeaux › Pessac Léognan › Château Pape Clément

Château Pape Clément 2008 is a red wine from Pessac-Léognan, Cru Classé de Graves, produced in Bordeaux by Château Pape Clément. It blends 60% Cabernet Sauvignon and 40% Merlot. The estate carries out plot-by-plot vinification: grapes are manually sorted, then gravity-fed into wooden vats; maturation of the grand vin lasts 18 months in oak barrels, 70% of which are new. The Wine Advocate awards it 95/100, recommending it from 2011 to 2026; Jancis Robinson rates it 17.5/20, with a drinking window of 2017-2034. James Suckling gives it 91/100 and Wine Spectator 90/100. Critics describe an energetic and structured 2008 with ripe or fine tannins, combining dark fruits, freshness, smoky notes, and a long finish.

Notes & cotations

The Wine Advocate 95/100

Reviewed by: Robert M. Parker, Jr.
Published: 2011-05-02
Drink Date: 2011 - 2026

One of the top successes of the vintage, this blend of 50% Cabernet Sauvignon, 45% Merlot and the rest Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot was harvested between October 8 and 24. The late harvest ensured perfect ripeness as evidenced by the sweet bouquet of black cherries, lead pencil shavings, cassis and subtle barbecue smoke. Well-balanced with good acidity, ripe tannins, medium to full body and a layered mouthfeel, this excellent 2008 can be drunk now and over the next 15+ years.

James Suckling 91/100

Published: 2010-12-20
Drink Date: A partir de 2013

A solid 2008 with subtle berry, currants and light vanilla bean character that turns to chocolate. Full body, with fine tannins and a long, long finish. Best after 2013.

Drink Date: 2013 - 2020

Smoky, toasty oak notes take the lead in this powerful red, framing a core of dark flavors, with cassis, espresso and tar. Bold, with muscular tannins and chewy extract. Best from 2013 through 2020. 7,750 cases made. Published on April 30, 2011
