2014 Château Pape Clément

Community Tasting Note

Likes this wine:

93 Points

Friday, September 22, 2023 - Had it blind at the CWG at MesaMar.

The body is medium plus, the tannins and acidity in great harmony as well as the alcohol. A bit tight since the owner didn’t previously decanted it.

At first I thought of a Spanish wine but the bigger body throw me away to a California Cabernet, likely a Sonoma wine.

As you can see I was completely wrong, it isn’t the first time and won’t be the last…
