CRITIC REVIEWS
Jeb Dunnuck
The Grand Vin 2021 Château LEvangile includes more Cabernet Franc and is 69% Merlot, 30% Cabernet Franc, and 1% Cabernet Sauvignon, brought up in 50% new French oak, with 15% amphora. Beautiful blue fruits, violets, chocolate, and some gravelly earth define the bouquet and while its a medium-bodied, more mid-weight LEvangile, it has a wonderful purity of fruit, ripe, present, silky tannins, outstanding balance, and a great finish. Its another vibrant, elegant, seamless Pomerol that will drink nicely with just short-term cellaring yet have 20 years of prime drinking.

The move towards more elegance and finesse confirmed. Floral violet notes. Crunchy fruit and tannins that provide length and persistence. Lovely texture with freshness as well. Harmonious. (JL)
