Chateau L’Evangile, Pomerol 2009
CRITIC REVIEWS
Jancis Robinson
Much skinnier and greener than Vieux Château Certan 2009 tasted alongside. Another charred note. Very sweet but rather lacking refinement and finesse.
Jane Anson
95% Merlot, 5% Cabernet Franc. A vintage that managed to tick all the boxes set down by the Bordeaux oenology school for great years, even though it was a little too warm for true balance in some estates. Not here though, with flavours concentrated but not overly so. This has softened just slightly over the years, still showing an exotic, dark, spicy character and intense black fruits. Just getting going, but don’t feel the slightest urgency to open any bottles that you’re lucky enough to have. The tannins are still very present, even if they are like silk.
