93 / 100
Jane Anson - Inside Bordeaux
Tobacco, roses, soot, gentle raspberry fruit, beautifully stretched out through the palate, this is a charming wine, although lacks the depth and nuance of the other L'Evangiles we tried in this lineup. Madame Ducasse in charge at this point, barrel ageing but no new oak.

Wine Spectator September - 1989
Wine Spectator
Supple, fleshy and subtle, a bit on the earthy side, but the spicy wild strawberry and currant aromas and flavours emerge gracefully to make this appealing now. Good balance.

Robert PARKER - The Wine Advocate
Tasted at the property, the 1986 L'Evangile had a rather muted bouquet that did not really "sing" from the glass. It felt a little mute with reluctant liquorice-tinged black fruit, savoury in style but lacking vigour. The palate is medium-bodied with a soft entry, quite rustic and old school, a touch of white pepper and game, smoky towards the toffee-tinged finish.

Evangile (L')
The grand vin of Château L'Evangile is described in an old edition of "Grands vins de Bordeaux" (Dussaut editions) as "...full, elegant wines, endowed with incomparable bouquet and finesse". For many enthusiasts, this subtle and elegant quality is indeed the hallmark of this wine. Grape varieties blended in the wine: 80 to 90% Merlot, 10 to 20% Cabernet Franc Duration of aging in oak barrels: 18 months, of which 70% are new barrels. Average annual production: 2,000 to 3,000 cases per year. After a cold and wet winter, high temperatures in March and April favoured the start of vegetation. Then, a long grey, temperate period without excess continued until August, requiring increased technical monitoring. The good weather stabilised in early September and eventually favoured a good and calm ripening of the grapes. This vintage is characterised by a 13-moon year and a longer than normal vegetative cycle. Discreet nose. Very round on the palate, full attack, generous mid-palate. Finish with a solid texture. Very well-integrated oak.
