Why shop with us?
Château Pape Clément Rouge is a distinguished Pessac-Léognan Grand Cru Classé, combining the region’s gravel-grown character with a Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot blend. The estate’s long history gives this 2022 vintage a notable place in one of Bordeaux’s most storied wine traditions.
Tasting Notes
The wine is expected to show a deep, youthful colour, with aromas and flavours typical of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot from Pessac-Léognan: dark berries, cassis and plum, often accompanied by hints of spice and earthy complexity. Its structure and concentration suggest that it can develop further with careful cellaring; exact drinking windows depend on storage conditions and individual preference.
Production
Pessac-Léognan is known for gravel-rich soils, which help provide drainage and are well suited to Cabernet Sauvignon, while Merlot contributes breadth and roundness. The wine is made from these two varieties, though specific 2022 details such as blend proportions, harvest dates and élevage are not provided.
Food & Serving
Pair with roast lamb, grilled or braised beef, or mature hard cheeses. Serve at around 16–18°C. A young bottle may benefit from decanting for about an hour, while an older bottle is best handled more gently and decanted shortly before serving if needed.
Producer
Château Pape Clément is one of Bordeaux’s historic estates, with vineyard origins dating to the 13th century. It takes its name from Pope Clement V, who owned the property before becoming pope, and is classified as a Grand Cru Classé de Graves. The château is a landmark producer in Pessac-Léognan, an appellation particularly valued for its gravel-soil red wines.
