  Chocolate, espresso, smoke, black cherries, blackberries and flowers create the attention-seeking perfume. On the palate, the wine round, supple and deep with layers of creamy, dark chocolate-tinted plums, cherries, licorice, smoke, and espresso. Concentrated, but seemingly less so than in previous vintages, the wine is almost reserved in style, which is due to the vintage, as well as to stylistic opportunities, and choices. Drink from 2025-2050.

  Amsterdam UGCB Tasting (Zuiderkerk): The oak is quite spicy but the wine flows well across the palate, fragrant and generous, chalky tannins, very good resonance and length.

  UGCB tasting-Amsterdam 2021 Bordeaux 03-04-2024: Smooth spices, a whiff of mint, modest fruit, a nice body and a juicy style. The lovely bitters and the ripe tannins give a balanced aftertaste. Also in red Pape Clement has made a switch to a more elegant and refined style.

  Kräftiges Rubinrot. Die Nase zeigt krautige und dunkelfruchtige Aromen, ein Touch Holz, auch Haselnuss. Im Gaumen straff, mittelkräftiger Körper, markante Struktur, das Tannin ist markant, von sehr guter Qualität, der Wein baut Druck auf, bleibt dabei elegant und hallt im Abgang rotfruchtig nach, hinterlässt Himbeeren und einen Hauch von Blutorangen. Gute Anlagen. 2027-2044 (Verkostet im November 2023 in Zürich bei UGCB)
