96pts Robert Parker, Pape Clément Blanc 2012
Jun 02, 2026
Chateau Pape Clement is a grand cru classe de Graves and is currently managed by Bernard Magrez, who also owns a few Chateaus such as Château La Tour Carnet, Château Haut Peyraguey and Château Fombrauge. They produce a full-bodied and powerful red wine and also a remarkable white from Sauvignon Blanc and Semillon, in which the white is produced in less quantities and it is widely agreed that their white is as good as their red.
From a prodigious year of Bordeaux white and nowadays stepping into an ideal time of drinking, we have an excellent-priced parcel of Pape Clement Blanc 2012 that is worth putting a few into everybody’s cellar. Awarded with a stunning 96pts from Robert Parker, this is one of the best whites in Bordeaux that you should never miss -

96pts Robert Parker
I am not sure what the exact blend is for the 2012 Pape Clément, but it has a light gold color and is a gorgeously full-bodied, multi-dimensional wine with great texture in its notes of rose petal, honeysuckle, crystallized/caramelized tropical fruits, mandarin orange and honeyed lemon. Aged 15 months in mostly new French oak, this is another brilliant achievement for proprietor Bernard Magrez from this tiny white wine vineyard, although I would rate it slightly below his perfect 2009. Anticipated maturity: now-2030.
