Bought this at the Treasury store in Napa. Not remembering what I paid but it was nicely discounted as Treasury sold off the property and was closing out the brand. Holding up well. — 5 years ago
Dark, full bodied, black and blue fruit with a through line of acidity. Hints of port on the finish. With nearly 10 years in bottle, it drank more like a cab than warmer climate Pinots, but had more vibrancy and delineation. — 7 months ago

Dark garnet color, strong jammy nose of dark plum, some earth & oak. A touch jammy in the mouth, full of fruit but with medium tannins and and ending dryness with an acidic final pucker. Medium body, dark red/black fruits, touch of spice. Very nice-even better as it warmed & more air- went to 9 from 8.9. — 5 years ago

An extensive history with this Pessac-Leognan estate. In 1305 Bertrand de Goth, a major landowner in Bordeaux as well as its Archbishop, became Pope Clement V and the city named this estate in his honour. From 1939 it was owned by the Montagne family, and passed by marriage into the ownership of Bernard Magrez. After a 20 minute decant, aromas of vanilla, raspberry, pepper, menthol - minty, dusty and aristocratic. “Damn good claret” as the old boys in Pall Mall would say! JH said more like the Medoc than Pessac-Leognan on the nose. The medium bodied palate has become more savoury and less fruit driven at 17 years but still works extremely well - seamless. 55% Merlot, 45% Cabernet Sauvignon. One of the 1001 wines. — 4 years ago

Absolutely excellent pape clement. At 21 years this is still quite primary, which confirms the general view that the 2005s will last forever (and likely longer than the 2000s). Paired with a rack of lamb for Easter, absolutely perfect. Delicious. — 3 months ago
