Château Pape-Clément--Vintage 2006
Pessac (Graves), cru classé
Tasting note: The dense purple-colored 2006 boasts an extraordinary perfume of lead pencil shavings, creme de cassis, burning embers, and a sensation that can only be described as like walking through a damp forest on a hot, humid day. Full-bodied, extraordinarily textured, and multidimensional with an amazingly long finish of nearly 60 seconds, this blend of 60 Cabernet Sauvignon and 40 Merlot from a 75-acre vineyard is a compelling wine that is one of the stars of the vintage. Anticipated maturity: 2012-2030. 95 points. Wine Advocate # 181 (Feb 2009)
