Description
A precise and lively white wine from Pessac-Léognan
The estate
Founded in 1252, the Château Pape Clément is one of the oldest Grand Crus of Bordeaux. The estate owes its name to Bertrand de Goth, Archbishop of Bordeaux, who became Pope Clement V in 1305. Since 1983, Bernard Magrez, owner of 4 Grand Crus Classés in Bordeaux, has dedicated all his efforts to elevate Château Pape Clément to the elite of Bordeaux's Grand Crus.

Planted on Pyrenean clayey gravel soils, the vines are managed on a micro-parcel basis. The estate is certified High Environmental Value 3, SME and Bee-Friendly.

A cool and wet winter gives way to a mild and wet spring. This is followed by a hot and dry summer, marked by heatwave episodes.
Vinification and ageing
Progressive harvest according to ripeness. Sequential pressing to retain only the best juices. Vinification and ageing in several containers to enhance the aromatic potential of the berries.
