Chateau Pape Clement 2018 Bordeaux

A beauty! Very limited. Silky, perfumed and layered. Exhilirating energy. A warm mocha note drapes elegantly over a prodigious core of steeped red and black currant and blackberry fruit while waves of black tea, anise, fruitcake and applewood fill in on the finish. Structure is serious and well-imbedded. Really well put together. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Cabernet Franc. Best from 2025 through 2038.
