Jeff Leve - The Wine Cellar Insider October - 2019
Jeff Leve - The Wine Cellar Insider
Full mature, medium-bodied, soft and round, the wine is quite smoky, with loads of tobacco, ash, cigar box and cigar wrapper that accompanies the lifted, earthy, red fruits. Not a showy wine, this is classic in nature, with a bright red fruit and tobacco leaf finish.

Robert PARKER - The Wine Advocate
Possessing the quintessential Graves elegance and perfume, the 1988 is impressively deep in color for a Graves, with a thrillingly fragrant nose of roasted chestnuts, tobacco, currants, and earthy stones. One notices that this is an atypically backward, full Pape-Clement, but there is wonderful ripeness, and high, velvety tannins. The finish is all smoky-scented black-cherries.

This is the first of a string of modern, well-made Papes, showing blackberry, mint and currant character throughout. Full-bodied, with silky, fine tannins.
