100 Wine Spectator
The nose on this already suggests a deep and contemplative wine with blackberry, dried flowers and sweet berries. Evolves to black olive and hints of asphalt. Full-bodied, with supersilky tannins and tangy, rich fruit. It really grabs hold of you and wants to tell you it?s special. Loads of ripe tannins too. Big and structured. Turns to tapenade. Score range: 97-100 ?JS
99 Robert Parker
Proprietor Denis Durantou has produced a blockbuster Pomerol from a blend of 85% Merlot and 15% Cabernet Franc, tipping the scales at just over 14.5% natural alcohol. A riveting wine, pure, elegant, but at the same time, extremely powerful and concentrated, with stunning texture, opulence and density, the tannins are abundant, and the wine certainly in need of a decade of cellaring. Fabulous creme de cassis and cherry liqueur notes are intertwined with hints of licorice, truffle, and graphite. Full and rich, but still in an infantile state of development, this wine needs to be cellared for 10 years but should keep for five decades or more. This 2009 is absolutely profound.

85 %, 15 % Merlot. 19'000 Flaschen. Sattes Purpur-Granat, dicht in der Mitte, lila Schimmer aussen. Intensives Johannisbeer und Blaubeerenbouquet, ein Hauch Grenadine in der Süsseanzeige und verschwenderisch viel rote Kirschen, zartes Vanillin im Hintergrund, viel Affinität zu einem gewaltigen Richebourg, Zitronenzestspuren zeigen die Frische an. Intensiver Gaumenauftritt, auch hier viel rote, reife, kleine Früchte, gut stützende Tannine die sich zu einer massiven Adstringenz formen. Zweifellos ein ganz grosser Pomerol, der aber in diesem Stadium noch recht schwer einzuordnen ist. warten (2016 - 2030)

Wonderful aromas of crushed blackberries and blueberries and spices. Rose petals. Full body, with soft and velvety tannins and a juicy, fruity finish. Beautiful layers of tannins, with hints of acidity. Best after 2017.

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.
