The 2017 Château Pape Clément Pessac-Léognan White is a stunning showcase of power and vibrant fruit aromas. Its nose is immediately captivating, with smoky, mineral notes layered with hints of menthol and verbena. On the palate, its rich, deep, and structured texture is balanced by impressive tension and freshness. Bold, refined, and full of energy, this is a brilliantly crafted and complete white wine. Rated 94+/100 by Parker. |
