2018 Chateau Pape Clement - Pessac (750ml)
99 Points
"2018 Ch?teau Pape Clement from Bernard Magrez is a gorgeous wine that's performing even better from bottle than barrel, which is always a good sign. Deep ruby/purple, with stunning cr?me de cassis and blackberry fruits as well as kaleidoscope-like notes of graphite, scorched earth, smoke, violets, and spring flowers, it offers full-bodied richness yet stays light on its feet, graceful, and almost ethereal on the palate, with integrated acidity and building yet seamless tannins. The Cabernet Sauvignon really sings at this point, and there's almost a M?doc-like regalness here. Reminding me of a slightly more elegant 2005 (it also has similarities to the 2016)"
