    PRIVILEGED MOMENTS. Château Pape Clément, a Graves Grand Cru Classé, is one of Bordeaux's oldest vineyards. The Château's second wine is a reflection of its terroir, elegant and refined.

    Twil The Wine I Love

    On tasting, this second wine is very similar to Château Pape Clément's 1st cuvée. The Cabernet Sauvignon predominates, bringing freshness to the wine.

    Tasting notes

    Appearance

    The wines have a dense but lighter robe than the medoc. The hue is ruby ​​with a touch ranging from purple to brick depending on the evolution.

    Aroma

    The bouquet is often fruity, with currant and other red and black fruits to which are added smoked or roasted notes.

    Wine Floral | Fruity | Spicy

    Taste

    Composed on average of 50% Merlot and 50% Cabernet Sauvignon, the red wines of Pessac-Léognan make a good compromise between marked tannins and the greediness of the fruit. We thus find red and ripe fruits, and empyreumatic notes.
