The 2024 Pape Clément Blanc has a seductive nose with wild peach, citrus peel, tangerine and light white flower scents opening in the glass. The palate is fresh on the entry and a little pithier than its peers, suggesting more solids "in the mix." As a consequence, there is a tad more weight on the finish. Though it perhaps lacks a little complexity overall, I am intrigued to see how this will age in bottle. Score: 91 - 93 Neal Martin, Vinous.com Maturity: 2028-2048 Date: 01 May 2025 |

The 2024 Pape Clément Blanc is stellar. Rich and deep, the 2024 stands out because of its textural density and almost phenolic feel. The 2024 is being raised in 50% oak (one-third new), 40% foudre and 10% a mix of ceramic, cement and stainless steel. Citrus confit, dried herbs, white pepper and chalk build as this imposing, structured white shows off its distinctive personality. Tasted four times.

The 2024 Pape Clément Blanc emerges from the glass with aromas of pear, confit citrus, lime and herbs, followed by a moderately weighted, supple and lively palate built around tangy acids that culminate in a fresh, fruity finish.
