Chateau Pape Clement 2018

Château Pape Clément is a historic Pessac-Léognan estate producing a classic Bordeaux red blend anchored by Cabernet Sauvignon (66%), with Merlot (30%) and Cabernet Franc providing structure and finesse. The 2018 vintage expresses the region's signature dark fruit character—blackcurrant and plum—layered with cedar, tobacco, and mineral notes that evolve with air. Medium-full body and medium-high tannins frame a wine built for both near-term enjoyment and graceful aging, equally at home with grilled red meat, lamb, or aged cheeses.
