Bernard Magrez 'La Destinee de Clement V' Chateauneuf-du-Pape 2017

Bernard Magrez’s experience in Bordeaux with the Grands Crus Classés and flagships Château Pape-Clément, La Tour Carnet, Clos Haut-Peyraguey and Fombrauge inspired him to explore very high-quality vineyards in Bordeaux, the South East of France and foreign countries.

Established in Châteauneuf first because of the exceptional quality of the land, climate and soil, but also because of the deep historical ties to Pope Clement V. Originally from Bordeaux, he owned the legendary Château Pape Clément when he became the first Pope of Avignon and moved to the official papal residence in Châteauneuf du Pape.
