This wine presents itself in the glass with a deep dark ruby red colour with an opaque core and an intense, multi-layered aroma. The bouquet is characterised by dark fruits such as cassis, black cherries, plums and black berries, complemented by spicy, earthy and mineral notes, fine liquorice nuances and subtle toasted wood. On the palate, the wine displays impressive structure, dense fruit and well-integrated, fine-grained tannins, supported by lively acidity, maintaining balance and freshness. The finish is long, elegant and persistent, with a harmonious combination of dark fruit, minerality and subtle toasted aromas. Overall, the 2020 Pape Clément conveys a powerful yet refined and aristocratic Bordeaux experience with great ageing potential.
