Love everything about this wine, fruit forward, tart, smooth, oaky and easy to drink. All the tastes dance on the tongue! — 3 years ago
An extensive history with this Pessac-Leognan estate. In 1305 Bertrand de Goth, a major landowner in Bordeaux as well as its Archbishop, became Pope Clement V and the city named this estate in his honour. From 1939 it was owned by the Montagne family, and passed by marriage into the ownership of Bernard Magrez. After a 20 minute decant, aromas of vanilla, raspberry, pepper, menthol - minty, dusty and aristocratic. “Damn good claret” as the old boys in Pall Mall would say! JH said more like the Medoc than Pessac-Leognan on the nose. The medium bodied palate has become more savoury and less fruit driven at 17 years but still works extremely well - seamless. 55% Merlot, 45% Cabernet Sauvignon. One of the 1001 wines. — 4 years ago
Well balanced, tons of fruit, low acid, buttery, very pleasant with cheese and crackers — 6 years ago
Huge cherry notes on the nose. Lots of heat upfront and on the tail. Syrupy body with vanilla on the mid palate. — 7 years ago
Wow. 15 yr old Cab from Napa. Tannins and fruits still doing their job. Complimented the BBQ Spencer’s just right. — 7 years ago

Bought this at the Treasury store in Napa. Not remembering what I paid but it was nicely discounted as Treasury sold off the property and was closing out the brand. Holding up well. — 5 years ago

Nice wine...too bad I only purchased one bottle. Close out so nice price as there won’t be any more St. Clement from Treasury group. Too bad the system won’t allow you to insert location. I’m home after a nearly two month trek. — 7 years ago

Absolutely excellent pape clement. At 21 years this is still quite primary, which confirms the general view that the 2005s will last forever (and likely longer than the 2000s). Paired with a rack of lamb for Easter, absolutely perfect. Delicious. — 3 months ago
