Gentle aromas of acacia, white peach, lemon curd and wet stone, followed by creamy mango on the palate. It’s medium-to full-bodied with crisp acidity. Flavorful with smooth, generous layers of fruit. Drink or hold.

Wine Enthusiast

With green-fruit and lemon flavors, this wine is initially all about freshness. The structure slowly reveals itself, with attractive minerality and saline tanginess. Drink the wine from 2022.

Beautiful honeyed lemon, white peach, white flowers, and chalky minerality emerge from the 2018 Clementin De Pape Clement Blanc. and it's medium-bodied, with a pure, balanced, elegant texture and terrific length on the finish. It's not a blockbuster, but it offers terrific complexity and loads of up-front charm and class. It's ideal for drinking over the coming 2-3 years.

Wine Advocate

The 2018 Clémentin de Pape Clement Blanc comes skipping out of the glass with bright, cheery notes of fresh pineapple, orange blossoms and Bosc pears, with hints of beeswax and yuzu. The medium-bodied palate has bags of vibrant tropical and citrus fruit flavors with a racy backbone and minerally finish.

Vinous Media

The 2018 Clémentin de Pape Clément Blanc is an attractive, understated dry white. Orange peel, apricot, passionfruit and wild flowers all open in the glass. The Clémentin is a bit light, as it was in barrel, but has just enough creaminess and texture to bring all the elements together.
