Château Pape Clément

Château Pape Clément, located in Pessac, just outside Bordeaux, owes its name to its most famous owner: Pope Clement V. The Château Pape Clément estate is part of the Pessac-Léognan Appellation d’Origine Contrôlée (AOC) and, more broadly, the Graves wine region. Grown on soil with exceptional characteristics, the 60 hectares of this vineyard embody the union of passion and hard work. Every plot, every vine, and every grape is carefully tended and then crafted with the precision of a master craftsman.

Château Pape Clément is one of the jewels in the crown of Bernard Magrez’s extensive portfolio of vineyards around the world. Based in Bordeaux, this prominent winegrower has made quality his top priority, which explains the meticulous care given to this terroir—whose exceptional qualities have defined Pessac’s reputation for over seven centuries. Pruning and leaf removal carried out with rare precision, hand-sorting of the grapes, and winemaking and aging according to the strictest standards—every effort is made to ensure that nature is free to express its very best.
