Wine Enthusiast

Owned by the Clément Fayat family, this eclectic château was designed by Louis Garros in 1881 and is well worth a view. The estate has produced a richly textured wine. Its black-currant and cocoa flavors are reflected in the layers of tannin and acidity. It will age well.

James Suckling

Notes of ripe red and dark berries with hints of hazelnuts and ground spices. Dry and chalky on the palate with a medium body and creamy tannins. Smooth and soft at the end.

Markus del Monego MW

"Dark purple colour with violet hue and black core. Expressive nose with aroma reminiscent of blackcurrants, crème de cassis, ripe blackberries and elderberries, subtle oak and dark chocolate. On the palate medium bodied with ripe yet firm tannin, very good length, ripe and juicy fruit in the finish as well as subtle oak, fine toasting and mild spices."

Bettane & Desseauve

Vinous

"The 2021 Clément-Pichon has a clean, fresh bouquet of blackberry, wild hedgerow and very light mint aromas. The palate is balanced with slightly gritty tannins, some weight on the midpalate, sapid black fruit and an old-school, tobacco-tinged finish. This should drink well for 12–15 years. A nice surprise."
