Note di degustazione
The 2009 Clos l’Eglise is well defined, focused and energetic on the nose. Brambly red berry fruit lace up with black truffle, sous-bois , mint and crushed stone. The palate is very well balanced with melted tannins, a fine bead of acidity. Harmonious with layers of raspberry coulis, strawberry, white pepper and sage. Fine precision on the finish, this 2009 is à point and should continue to improve. Excellent. Tasted at the Clos l’Eglise vertical.

A true superstar that flirts with perfection, the 2009 Clos L'Eglise checks in at the top of the heap of great vintages, including 1998, 2000, 2005, and 2016. Still youthful ruby/plum-hued with a spectacular bouquet of chocolatey black cherry and currant fruits, graphite, leafy herbs, unsmoked tobacco, and a kiss of earth, it hits the palate with full-bodied richness as well as an incredible sense of opulence with no weight or heaviness. The usual blend of 90% Merlot and 10% Cabernet Franc, it has ripe, polished tannins, stunning purity of fruit, a great mid-palate, and is just a magical, heavenly Pomerol to enjoy over the coming 15-20 years.
Tasted blind. Smells a little bretty – and it must be strong for me to notice it! Savoury and robbed rather of fruit. (JR)
