Warm weather is finally here, and we have the greatest wines for you to enjoy this season and beyond! You may commonly spend sunny days enjoying a glass of California Chardonnay, a crisp Chablis or a lovely, sought-after Rosé - and those are all terrific choices. But today, we’re turning the spotlight to an outstanding, 100 point Bordeaux Blanc - 2020 Pape Clement Banc. While Bordeaux is famous for many of its top pedigree red wines, several of its white wines also deserve attention and a spot in your wine lineup, especially during the summer months.
“I love drinking white Bordeaux in the summer! It’s just so fresh and clean. Every time I pop a bottle of Bordeaux Blanc for friends, it creates a new fan.” - Dave Sokolin
There are only a handful of 100 point white wines in history, and most of them cost thousands of dollars per bottle. 2020 Pape Clement Blanc is only $179/bottle, and it’s pure perfection with a perfect 100 point score! This is as good and even higher scoring than Haut Brion Blanc that sells for $1,200 / bottle!
Just look at the chart below, and you’ll see what an amazing deal 2020 Pape Clement Blanc is!
| COMPARISON | Score | $/Btl |
| 2020 Chateau Pape Clement Blanc | 100 JD | $179 |
| 2020 Chateau Haut Brion Blanc | 98+ JD | $1,199+ |

2020 Pape Clement Blanc is a refreshing change that will blow you away. This is safely the lowest priced 100 point white Bordeaux ever. It’s a blend of 62% Sauvignon Blanc, 33% Semillon, 4% Sauvignon Gris, and the remaining 1% Muscadelle.
“If you’re a fan of white Burgundy and are looking for something that is rich but even more crisp, this has that super complex combination of both aspects, thus the 100 point score.” - Dave Sokolin “This beauty stopped me in my tracks… this truly sensational white is an incredible achievement, and hats off to the team at Pape Clement!” - Jeb Dunnuck
2020 Pape Clement Blanc is drinking well now - 2032. Very limited quantities are remaining. This is an excellent buying opportunity, so take advantage of it before it’s gone for good! It’s a summer must-have wine!
Cheers!
