Note di degustazione
Meaty, red fruit and floral nose followed by a rich, creamy and balanced palate. A lovely long and fully-rounded finish with loads of energy, smoky fruit and no edges. Excellent.

Black! Concentrated fruit with a hint of tar and much opulence. Sweet start - so much sweet fruit that the sandy tannins emerge only at the very end. But there is freshness here too. This works!
The 2015 l'Eveche is a blend of 75% Merlot and 20% Cabernet Franc plus a seasoning of other varieties, aged in new oak, foudres and used barrels. It has a lifted blackberry and raspberry-scented bouquet with fine definition, broody, more introspective than I expected, the gravel soils imparting a Left Bank trait. The palate is medium-bodied with firm tannin. This is a structured Saint Émilion with fine salinity towards the finish, one that deserves 3-4 years in bottle, but I suspect will be worth the wait.
Lots of freshness and density with velvety tannins and blue fruits. Cool and spicy. Fascinating blend of 80% Merlot, 15% Cabernet Franc, 2% Cabernet Sauvignon, 1% Malbec, 15 carmenère, and 1% Petit Verdot. Mar 2016, www.JamesSuckling.com
