TASTING NOTES: A deep, ruby red colour. The nose is an alluring mix of blackcurrant, espresso, smoke, clove and hints of wild herbs, leading to a palate with a seductive complexity that's both silky and full-bodied. The wine's smooth, velvety texture gives way to a long, lingering finish, leaving a lasting impression.

BRAND NAME: Château l Evangile
Chateau L’Evangile was founded by the Léglise family around the middle of the 18th century and was one of Pomerol's first vineyards. After being taken over by different owners, Domaines Barons de Rothschild (Lafite) acquired L'Evangile in 1990 with a view to ensuring that the property was looked after to the same high standard. DBR (Lafite)’s initial influence included a more refined selection of the Grand Vin, and the creation of Blason de L’Évangile as a second wine. Efforts were also undertaken to improve the vineyard with a restoration and partial renewal plan that was launched in 1998. The complete renovation of the vat room and the cellar, which was finished in 2004, completed the property’s new configuration.
