100 James Suckling
This is amazingly perfumed with amazing aromas of fresh violets and pink roses. Blackberries and dark fruit. Black truffle and stone. It’s full-bodied with fantastic structure and tannins. Yet, it’s weightless and so beautiful. The length is ethereal and goes on for minutes. You taste it and it’s so wonderful that you want to drink it. One for the cellar. Better in 2028, but already a joy.

The 2019 l’Église-Clinet has a brilliantly defined bouquet with echoes of the equally showstopping Trotanoy that I tasted just a couple of hours before. Crystalline red fruit and hints of blood orange intermingle with crushed stone and truffle. The palate is medium-bodied with an immediately seductive, satin-like texture belying the backbone of this Pomerol. Lightly spiced and fanning out with intention on the finish, this will, as I wrote before, stand as the perfect testament to Denis Durantou as his daughters carry on his legacy.

Château L'Eglise Clinet

Derrière son statut de ténor de l’appellation Pomerol, le Château L’Eglise-Clinet cache un vignoble d’assez faible envergure, limité à quelque 5,5 hectares plantés de merlot et de cabernet franc. Perché sur le fameux plateau de Pomerol, ce terroir argilo-graveleux favorise l’émergence du style maison, incarné par des vins concentrés d’une belle complexité aromatique. Le niveau qualitatif de L’Eglise-Clinet fait des bonds en avant d’un millésime sur l’autre. Le grand vin, L’Eglise-Clinet, illustre à merveille l’appellation avec sa structure, sa densité et ses proportions classiques. La Petite Eglise sort également des chais du domaine mais ne se positionne pas comme son second vin, Denis Durantou préférant y voir l’expression du terroir sablo-graveleux sur lequel sont sises certaines parcelles. Montlandrie, assemblage de merlot, cabernet franc et cabernet-sauvignon, trouve ses origines dans le terroir argilo-calcaire de son domaine des Côtes de Castillon.
