Lots of tangy fruit and beautiful depth. It’s full-bodied, yet racy and very, very long. So much salty and sliced-apple character here. Excellent minerality and intensity. - James Suckling
Always up with the top whites in a vintage, the 2019 Château Pape Clement Blanc sports a light gold hue to go with an exotic bouquet of honeyed grapefruit, citrus, flowers, and brioche. It's beautifully done, medium to full-bodied, and has bright acidity and a great finish. It's a terrific, complex, layered white. - Jeb Dunnuck
Finely balanced between richly textured and restrained savoury white pear and citrus fruits. Walks the line between the two, far more successful to my taste than it did perhaps a decade ago, when this was a bigger style of white. You can clearly tell that this has impact and confidence, but it is beautifully complex and well-put together. Fermented in barrel, large sized oak casks and (15%) in cement egg-shaped vats. Harvest August 30 to September 12. Consultant Michel Rolland. Tasted twice two weeks apart. Drinking Window 2021 - 2032 - Jane Anson, Decanter
