Crushed-stone and berry aromas with some blackberry and black-tea character. Just a touch of smokiness. Sweet fruit, too. This is so refined, subtle, and beautiful for Pape with full body, ultra-fine tannins and a succulent finish. The center-palate is dense and complete. Goes on for minutes. So subtle and refined, focused and classy. Try after 2026.

Couleur pâle. Nez intense, fruité et subtil. Bouche de suite suave, avec un corps aérien et une nuance boisée dans la persistance. N'égale pas le remarquable 2018. Bonne longueur.

Finely balanced between richly textured and restrained savoury white pear and citrus fruits. Walks the line between the two, far more successful to my taste than it did perhaps a decade ago, when this was a bigger style of white. You can clearly tell that this has impact and confidence, but it is beautifully complex and well-put together.

Bursting with aromas of grapefruit, gooseberry, tropical fruits and fresh bread, Pape Clément's 2019 Blanc is medium to full-bodied, bright and vibrant, its elegantly fleshy core of fruit animated by lively acids and chalky dry extract that lends pleasing grip to the finish. This is a seamless, refreshing Sauvignon-dominated (in percentage as well as personality) blend that is drinking well out of the gates.

Elegantes Bouquet, weisse Blüten, Sternfrucht, Stachelbeeren, zart Toast. Dicht, saftig, feine Säure, zart cremig, guter Schmelz, Mandarinen, Mango, Nougat, zart Grapefruit, gute Länge.

À un nez intense et complexe, floral, citronné, vanillé et épicé, répond une bouche tout aussi expressive, ample, mûre et dense. La finale minérale et fruitée se prolonge durablement.

Enticing, featuring a flash of brioche amid the white peach, verbena and lemon peel notes, with a subtle echo of salted butter through the finish. Stylish and sneaky long, too. Sauvignon Blanc, Sémillon and Sauvignon Gris. Drink now through 2027.
