Description

In Pomerol, and under the watchful eye of Saskia de Rothschild, Château L’Evangile crafts an excellent cellaring wine from hand-harvested grapes and plot-by-plot vinification in cement vats of various sizes. Aged for 18 months in barrels whose proportion of new wood amounts to 70%, this wine, which is predominately made from Merlot (between 80% and 90%) and Cabernet Franc, charms everyone with its depth, aromatic complexity and soft, almost velvety texture. A beautiful tautness is present throughout, making it very persistent.
