Chateau Pape Clement 2015 750ml

The color is a medium to deep, darkly pigmented ruby red, losing a little color to the rim. The fruit aromas are restrained but rich. The palate has chocolate/cocoa fruit, licorice richness & perhaps a touch of meatiness. There is plentiful new oak influence, giving mocha notes & a fine structure overlaying the rich & ripe fruit. The wine finishes with dark cherry & dark olive fruit with a cocoa powder texture
