It was his very first vineyard. Now owner of three other Grands Crus Classés in the Bordeaux region, La Tour Carnet (Haut Médoc) Château Fombrauge (Saint-Emilion) and Clos Haut Peyraguey (Sauternes), Bernard Magrez is today an important Bordeaux businessman in the wine sector, owner of 42 great international estates.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eSight : A wine of good density ruby red, with brown, mahogany, biscuit hints. It has maintained its luster and clarity. The rim is fairly thick. The tears are fine, clear, abundant and regular. Smell: At once expressive, forthright and complex. There are notes of all families of fragrance: fruit, flowers, and spices.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eTaste : The attack is forthright, round and suave, soothing even. The intense aromas initially recall the complexity of the nose. There is leather and lightly charred wood, and roasted notes. The beauty of the vintage is revealed by its elegance rather than its full-flavor. The wine has an attractive aromatic range with a finish of remarkable elegance.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pipProfessionalReviews_list\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pipProfessionalReviews_rating\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"wineRatings_initials\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eRP\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"wineRatings_rating\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e100\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pipProfessionalReviews_authorName\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eRobert Parker's Wine Advocate\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pipProfessionalReviews_review\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pipSecContent_copy\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eDeep garnet in color, the 2010 Pape Clement comes wafting sensuously from the glass with fragrant notions of dried roses, Chinese five spice and sandalwood over a core of kirsch, warm cassis and plum preserves plus a touch of cedar chest. Medium to full-bodied, the palate is finely crafted with a firm line of ripe, grainy tannins and bold freshness supporting the perfumed fruit through the incredibly long finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pipProfessionalReviews_list\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pipProfessionalReviews_rating\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"wineRatings_initials\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eJS\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"wineRatings_rating\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e96\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pipProfessionalReviews_authorName\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eJames Suckling\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pipProfessionalReviews_review\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pipSecContent_copy\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eIntense blueberry nose with great precision and expression.

There is a lovely elegant uptick through the finish, offering a counterpoint to black chocolate shavings, black olive, cut herbs, rosemary and cinnamon, just full of spice and power. It's a good wine, no question; if not particularly signature Pessac.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Logan, Chateau Pape Clement","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42988210716896,"sku":"111582","price":340.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0649\/9713\/0464\/products\/chateau-pape-clement-pessac-leognan-grand-cru-classe-de-graves_1.jpg?v=1663884392","url":"https:\/\/www.mywineconnection.com\/products\/chateau-pape-clement-pessac-leognan-grand-cru-classe-de-graves-2010-750ml","provider":"My Wine Connection","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
