95 Robert Parker
2008: A remarkable wine in this vintage, L’Eglise Clinet’s 2008 has a color almost as dark as the barrel sample of 2010. Classic mocha and caramel-infused creme de cassis and black cherry notes, with hints of licorice and loamy soil soar from the glass of this opaque ruby/purple, aromatically compelling wine. Opulent, expansive, and savory, with a broad texture, a full-bodied mouthfeel, terrific purity and a layered finish, this is another big, massive wine that transcends the vintage character, and will probably need 7-10 years of bottle age. It should keep for 20 or more years as well.

18 Rene Gabriel
85 % Merlot, 15 % Cabernet Franc. Sattes, dichtes Purpur-Rubin. Pfeffriges Bouquet, viel Kirschen und Maulbeeren, Amarenatouch, Vanillemark, Glühweinwürze, geröstete Himbeerkernen, pur und mit viel Aromendruck. Fester, stoffiger Gaumen, dramatische Konzentration im Extrakt, die Beeren schwanken zwischen blauen und schwarzen Beerenaromen, Darjeelingnoten, würzige Tiefe zeigend, unheimlich viel frisch gepflückte Frucht im Finale. Ein klassischer, grosser Eglise Clinet mit einem sehr langen Leben. warten (2017 - 2035)

94 James Suckling
A dusty and sensual wine with beautiful perfumes of blackberries, blueberries, minerals, and flowers. Full bodied, but very delicate and refined with ultra-fine tannins and a gorgeous finish. Try it in four to five years.
92 Wine Spectator
This is lilting, with perfumy incense and warm cherry confiture aromas giving way to a still-compact core of plum, red currant and melted red licorice. The long finish has some grip to shed, with plum skin, spice and floral notes flittering in and out. Best from 2013 through 2018. 1,465 cases made. –JM

Château L'Eglise Clinet

Amongst the top echelons of Pomerol, Château L'Eglise-Clinet is quite a small Bordeaux estate with a holding of just 5.5-hectares of Merlot and Cabernet Franc. Located on Pomerol’s famed plateau, the terroir of gravelly clay soils builds L'Eglise-Clinet’s signature style of concentrated and aromatic complex wines. Vintage after vintage the quality of L’Eglise-Clinet continues to improve. The Grand Vin, L’Eglise-Clinet is a magnificent structured, dense classically proportioned example of the appellation. The château also produces Le Petite L’Eglise, which is not thought of as a second wine by Durantou, it is an expression his vineyards that sit on the sandy gravelly soil plots. Montlandrie comes from the limestone and clay terroir of his Côtes de Castillon vineyard, it is a Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon blend.
