I am not sure what else to say. After having tasted hundreds of 2020s, L'Eglise-Clinet very clearly claims a stake for itself among the wines of the vintage. L'Eglise-Clinet can be a brute in its youth, but the 2020 is all finesse. Sweet red/purplish fruit, rose petal, blood orange and pomegranate are some of the nuances that emerge over time. Perhaps keeping the temperatures a bit cooler in fermentation explains the extraordinary finesse here. The 2020 simply can't be denied.97 Robert ParkerA blend of 90% Merlot and 10% Cabernet Franc, the 2020 L'Eglise Clinet wafts from the glass with aromas of dark berries, mulberries, cherries and cassis mingled with notions of espresso roast, loamy soil, violets and truffle framed by creamy new oak. Full-bodied, layered and concentrated, it's a rich, youthfully firm, muscularly constructed young Pomerol that will richly reward bottle age. 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.
