Area under vine at the estate, from its technical sheet — it does not change from one vintage to the next. Each vintage’s blend, by contrast, departs from it: that figures on its own page.

Footprint, parcels and their split are measured on the Compagnie Médocaine’s own parcel survey; elevation, slope and aspect on the Mapbox terrain-rgb digital terrain model, derived from IGN’s RGE ALTI over France. Compare with the blend on the technical sheet, at the top of the page: the two answer different questions.
Le Château Pape Clément est l’un des plus anciens Grands Crus de Bordeaux. Son vignoble a été implanté au XIIIe siècle par Bertrand de Goth, cadet d’une noble famille de la région de Bordeaux. Archevêque à Bordeaux, Bertrand de Goth est devenu Pape en 1305, sous le nom de Clément V. Le Château en tire son nom. Le vignoble a ensuite appartenu à l’Archevêché de Bordeaux jusqu’à la Révolution Française. Ce domaine peut s’enorgueillir d’avoir produit du vin sur les mêmes terres pendant sept siècles — les premières vendanges y sont attestées dès 1252.

Nappe de graves argileuses pyrénéennes datant de la fin du pliocène et du quaternaire ancien. La forte proportion d’argile dans ces sols est un atout indispensable pour la complexité que l’on retrouve dans les vins du domaine.

| 2016 | — | A very wet winter followed by a sun-drenched summer produced a rare balance, combining the depth of great years with genuine freshness. | — |
