Medium to full-bodied, the palate is a powerhouse of crunchy, vibrant black fruit, framed by wonderfully ripe, rounded tannins and oodles of freshness, finishing long and savory. Bravo!<br/>98 James SucklingExtremely enticing aromas of blackberries, brambleberries, sweet tobacco, bark and mushrooms follow through to a medium to full body that grows on the palate and crescendoes to medium, round tannins, juicy fruit and a long, flavorful finish. Rolls along the palate. Excellent, persistent finish. Try after 2024, but already a joyous glass. Producer Château L'Eglise ClinetAmongst the top echelons of Pomerol, Château L'Eglise-Clinet is quite a small Bordeaux estate with a holding of just 5.5-hectares of Merlot and Cabernet Franc. Located on Pomerol’s famed plateau, the terroir of gravelly clay soils builds L'Eglise-Clinet’s signature style of concentrated and aromatic complex wines. Vintage after vintage the quality of L’Eglise-Clinet continues to improve. The Grand Vin, L’Eglise-Clinet is a magnificent structured, dense classically proportioned example of the appellation. The château also produces Le Petite L’Eglise, which is not thought of as a second wine by Durantou, it is an expression his vineyards that sit on the sandy gravelly soil plots. Montlandrie comes from the limestone and clay terroir of his Côtes de Castillon vineyard, it is a Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon blend.
