Chateau Pape Clement 是波爾多最古老的特級酒莊 (Grand Cru)之一，早在13世紀由波爾多貴族 Betrand de Got創立，首次收成於1252年。後來Betrand de Got成為波爾多大主教，並於1305 年成為教宗 Clement 五世 (Le Pape Clement V)。酒莊因而以此命名，並成為標誌。現時它是Bernard Magrez旗下的酒莊之一。

(Robert Parker's rating: 94 points)
2014 年的Pape Clement非常芳香，有着車厘子、櫻桃酒及糖果似的香氣。橡木於未來數年會完全融合。(註：記於2017年) 酒體中等、單寧柔順、酸度細膩。餘韻具備張力，帶有黑莓和煙草的味道。它無疑是一款可以陳年的葡萄酒。(適飲期：2020-2050)
Château Pape Clément is one of the oldest Grands Crus of Bordeaux. His vineyard - the first harvests took place in 1252 - was founded in the 13th century by Betrand de Got, younger of a noble family from Bordeaux region. He became the Archbishop of Bordeaux, and then the Pope in 1305 under the name of Clement V. This is how the Château inherited its name from and its wine became an icon. Today it is part of the Bernard Magrez group of estates.

Tasting Notes:
(Robert Parker's rating: 94 points)
The 2014 Pape Clement has quite a potent bouquet with lavish red cherry, kirsch, iodine and pastille-like scents, the oak probably needing another couple of years to fully integrate. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannin, a fine line of acidity, quite refined and focused with appreciable tension towards the finish that comes laden with succulent, tobacco-infused blackberry fruit. It is certainly a wine destined for a long future. (Drink date: 2020-2050)
