Tasting notes
The 2014 Clos l'Eglise has a tightly wound bouquet, quite backward as you might expect, with broody black cherry, black truffle and touches of orange peel. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannin, crisp and tensile with a gentle grip in the mouth, touches of allspice and clove emerging towards the nicely structured and linear finish that lingers in the mouth.

About this wine
Clos l'Eglise is a distinguished Pomerol estate producing elegant red wines from the heart of Bordeaux's most prestigious Right Bank appellation. The vineyard's exceptional terroir, characterized by clay and iron-rich soils, imparts depth and complexity to wines crafted primarily from Merlot and Cabernet Franc. This blend exemplifies the warming, full-bodied style Pomerol is renowned for, with perfumed aromatics and subtle liquorice and forest floor notes that develop beautifully with time.
The wine pairs beautifully with rich, savory dishes: beef, lamb, venison, and duck are ideal companions. A full-bodied red of this caliber is equally suited to formal dining occasions or intimate cellar tastings. Clos l'Eglise represents the classic marriage of terroir and tradition that defines fine Bordeaux winemaking, making it an essential addition to serious collections.
