Sunday, September 18, 2016 - Pape Clement 2005 is packed with heft! It is dense, rich, complex, and has pillars for legs and will only get stronger and better in flavor. It is drinking fantastic now, and can bring an ass whooping onto many other YOUTHFUL first growth wines from GREAT VINTAGES. The wine is very well balanced, seamless, and hard to pick apart. All the elements make a collectively lively, fresh, cedar, chocolate, and damp earth driven Bordeaux with a very long, caressing finish. Its not cheap, but its worth the price if you love serious bordeaux. This is a SERIOUS wine at a fair price in the awfully serious market. Drink or HOLD
