Lot #42. Pape Clement 1999

Description: Consists of 1 Bottle, 0.75L
Score: 91 RP.
"The stunning1999 Pape Clement is a blend of 54% Cabernet Sauvignon and 46% Merlot. The wine is performing better from bottle than it did from cask. There is a fabulous bouquet of smoke, blueberries, raspberry cassis, and liquid minerals. This is a medium to full-bodied, layered, concentrated wine with no hard edges. As it sat in the glass, additional aromas of cedar wood, graphite, and cigar smoke emerged. This is a classic, sexy, knock-out Pessac-Leognan with a surprisingly dense, rich style for a 1999." Wine Advocate #140, Apr 2002
Provenance: The White Collection
Lot Location: Orange County
Estimate: $55
