Note di degustazione
Some chocolately Pomerol depth here. A touch of coffee. All here. Chocolate cake and clay. In the mouth this is a league up. Chocco-Pomerol character with depth, power, breadth and length. Goes on and on. Chunky and deep. Muscle. Ornate. And a silky texture. Excellent wine. Joss Fowler, FINE+RARE, April 2015.

The 2014 L'Eglise-Clinet has a lovely nose that is superior to other Pomerols in this flight. It's fresher with more vigor and scents of wild strawberry, cranberry, licorice and cedar. It gains delineation in the glass. The palate is medium-bodied with grainy tannins, superbly structured and a little savory (more so than four years ago). There's a little toughness on the finish, but not aggressive. It is a quintessential wine from the late Denis Durantou with a long future ahead. A second bottle tasted blind just felt a tad drier on the finish.
Tasted blind. First bottle: mid garnet, sweet fruited and still showing oak sweetness in mocha character on the nose; a suggestion of oxidation and rather drying on the finish. Second bottle: still a bit drying on the finish but more fruit so the tannins are better balanced. (JH)
Stands among the top Pomerols in the lineup. Juicy, serious, more in the Lafleur than Le Pin camp in its Left Bank intellectual quality, with graphite and pencil lead showing a serious side despite heavy Merlot dominance in the blend, with a richer fleshier fruit coming through the mid palate, cassis, then raspberry, creme caramel, turmeric, clove. Just a beautiful wine. 70% new oak.
Informazioni sul produttore
Ch. l'Eglise-Clinet è una delle tenute vinicole più modeste di Bordeaux. Probabilmente ci passeresti davanti in auto se non conoscessi la sua produzione vinicola. Non c'è un ingresso ostentato né un ampio viale di ghiaia.
