Good fruit, flesh masking the tannins

Robert PARKER - The Wine Advocate
This has a rustic bouquet, quite ferrous with decayed red-berried fruit, smoke and chestnut. Moderate intensity. The Cabernet Franc is pronounced here. The palate is medium-bodied, the tannins a little hard and obdurate, firm backbone, touches of dried blood and spice towards the dry, slightly austere yet still satisfying finish. Blind, I suspected it might be the '86 rather than the '88.

Slightly austere but it shows a lovely allspice and fruit character that draws you back to the glass. Medium- to full-bodied, with silky tannins and a long, racy finish.

Château Château L'Eglise Clinet
Château L'Eglise Clinet
Château l'Eglise Clinet, like many Pomerol estates, owes its name to its proximity to the commune's church, which sits majestically amidst the vineyards. Despite its low media profile due to its very limited production, Château l'Eglise Clinet remains one of the very best in the Pomerol appellation, on par with Château l'Evangile or Château la Conseillante. Ideally located on the deep soils of the Pomerol plateau, the vines of Château l'Eglise Clinet are survivors of the great frost of 1956, which led to the uprooting of most vines in the appellation. This small Pomerol gem was operated by Pierre Lasserre, who also owned Clos René in Pomerol. In the early 1980s, the perfectionist Denis Durantou took over the 6 hectares of vines (averaging 45 years old). Château l'Eglise Clinet also produces a second wine called La Petite Eglise.
