The 2017 L'Évangile, 100% Merlot for this first time, is just as impressive from bottle as it was from barrel. Dark, sumptuous and wonderfully inviting, the 2017 has so much to offer. Dark fruit, spice, mocha, leather and licorice infuse the 2017 with notable depth. Time in the glass brings out lovely aromatic top notes that add freshness. A rapturously beautiful wine, L'Évangile is stellar. Frost wiped out half of the potential crop, including all of the Cabernet Franc, which means the Grand Vin is 100% Merlot. Technical Director Jean Pascal Vazart opted for gentle pumpovers and longer extractions than normal.

This is a breed apart, with a remarkably dense yet lithe core of braised fig, warmed plum sauce and steeped black currant fruit, coated with ganache and melted licorice details and infused with incense and black tea notes. Incredibly lush through the finish, but maintains cut and drive due to the well-embedded alder spine. Best from 2022 through 2040. 3,000 cases made. — JM

All of the Cabernet Franc was frosted in 2017, so L'Evangile is composed of 100% Merlot for the first time. Deep garnet-purple colored, the 2017 L'Evangile is a little closed to begin, offering glimpses at blueberry preserves, baked plums and black raspberries scents before revealing nuances of spice cake, cinnamon stick, dusty soil and garrigue plus a waft of incense. Medium to full-bodied, the palate has a lot of richness and depth, with firm, ripe, rounded tannins and just enough freshness, finishing long and spicy<br/>

The generosity in this wine is essence-like with black cherries, black truffles and wet earth. Full-bodied and deep with rich, creamy tannins and a long, intense finish. It goes on for minutes. Silky and fantastic. Extremely well done. Drink after 2023.
Produttore
Château L'Évangile
Il famoso Château L'Évangile produce un esempio di vino Pomerol grandiosamente profondo, strutturato e potente. Situati nella parte sud-orientale dell'altopiano di Pomerol, i 22 ettari di vigneti della tenuta si trovano su terreni sabbioso-argillosi e ghiaiosi tra i più rari. Con una storia che risale a metà Settecento, lo Château è uno dei più antichi vigneti della denominazione. Dopo aver avuto diversi proprietari, L'Évangile è attualmente dei Domaines Barons de Rothschild (Lafite). La famiglia Rothschild acquisì la cantina nel 1990 dalla famiglia Ducasse, promettendo di preservare l'eccellente reputazione di L'Evangile. Negli ultimi decenni, la famiglia ha aumentato gli sforzi per la gestione del vigneto, completando il profondo rinnovamento della cantina e della tinaia dello Château. Sotto la leadership della famiglia Rothschild, lo Château ha creato anche un secondo vino, il Blason de L'Évangile, un rosso accessibile con un carattere simile a quello del Grand Vin. Château L'Évangile, il Grand Vin, è vinificato tradizionalmente ed evidenzia una base densa e solida di tannini, con sentori evidenti di legno armoniosamente integrati.
