Description
Chateau l'Evangile 1998Pomerol
6wasl
Bottle (6)
A consignment from one of the most well-known collectors in the US. Most wines purchased on release, all kept in professional temperature and humidity controlled facility.
"A blend of 80% Merlot and 20% Cabernet Franc aged in 45% new oak, this terrific l'Evangile is stuffed with concentrated blackberry and raspberry fruit. There is also an acacia-like floral character that gives the wine even more complexity. Notes of toffee, licorice, and truffles add to the aromatic fireworks. The wine is full-bodied, with superb purity as well as moderate tannin in the finish." (92 pts. Robert Parker, Wine Advocate, April 2001)
"Deep garnet-brick colored and blended of 72% Merlot and 28% Cabernet Franc, the nose of the 1998 L'Evangile has the most intensely perfumed scents of potpourri, fallen leaves, Chinese five spice, camphor and new leather over a core of crème de cassis, prunes, star anise, dusty soil and tobacco with wafts of dried lavender and cinnamon stick. Medium to full-bodied, rich and decadent in the mouth, it has layer upon layer of spice and savory notions with a plush frame and refreshing lift on the finish." (95 pts. Lisa Perrotti-Brown, Wine Advocate, May 2018)
