Chateau Pape Clement 1989

The Wine Advocate: "Still a saturated ruby-black in hue, the 1989 Pape Clément remains very youthful and goes from strength to strength as it evolves. Offering up a rich bouquet of sweet, smoky berry fruit, loamy soil, black truffles and pencil shavings, it's medium to full-bodied, deep and concentrated, with superb depth at the core, ripe but lively acids and a long, penetrating finish. This serious wine is notably underrated."
