James Suckling: 95 Points
This is really polished and beautiful with very fine tannins that caress your palate. Medium body. Refined. Currant, chocolate, hazelnut and black walnut. Some mushroom. Very complex and subtle. Drinkable now but better in a couple of years.
Wine Enthusiast: 95 Points
This legendary estate, created by Pope Clément V, who was from the Bordeaux region, has produced a fine, densely textured wine. Its ripe tannins are typical of this estate, laced in this vintage by acidity and black-currant fruits.
Vinous: 94 Points
The 2021 Pape Clement is a very elegant, polished wine. Crushed flowers, red cherry fruit, blood orange, menthol, and spice all grace this wonderfully layered, expressive vintage of Pape Clement. Pretty floral top notes add freshness and vivacity. The more laid-back house style these days is so appealing.
Wine Advocate: 94 Points
The 2021 Pape Clément exhibits notions of sweet berries and cherries mingled with rich aromas of espresso roast, black truffles, toasty new oak and loamy soil. Medium to full-bodied, deep and quite extracted in style, it's a rich, fleshy wine that gained in integration and harmony over the the three weeks I spent in Bordeaux. Tasted three times.
