A rounded, alluring style, with a rather showy brioche and toasted macadamia nut frame around a core of Jonagold apple, tangerine and peach flavors. The flattering finish is kept honest by a twinge of bitter orange. Distinctive. Drink now through 2018. 1,415 cases made.
–JM
I am not sure what the exact blend is for the 2012 Pape Clément, but it has a light gold color and is a gorgeously full-bodied, multi-dimensional wine with great texture in its notes of rose petal, honeysuckle, crystallized/caramelized tropical fruits, mandarin orange and honeyed lemon. Aged 15 months in mostly new French oak, this is another brilliant achievement for proprietor Bernard Magrez from this tiny white wine vineyard, although I would rate it slightly below his perfect 2009. Anticipated maturity: now-2030.
