Tasting notes

Composed of 90% Merlot and 10% Cabernet Franc, the 2015 L'Eglise Clinet comes bursting out of the glass with a gorgeous perfume of exotic spices and potpourri over a core of blueberry compote, red currant jelly, spiced black plums and mulberries with touches of unsmoked cigars, powdered cinnamon and licorice. Big, rich and full-bodied, the palate offers exquisite harmony, packed with exotic spice and red and black fruit layers, finishing on an epically long-lasting mineral note. In an understated word: WOW.

About this wine

Château L'Eglise-Clinet is a renowned wine producer located in the Pomerol appellation of Bordeaux, France. With a long and rich history dating back to the 18th century, the estate is known for its traditional winemaking style and focus on producing high-quality wines that reflect the unique terroir of Pomerol. The vineyards of Château L'Eglise-Clinet cover 5.5 hectares and are planted with Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Cabernet Sauvignon.

The grapes are carefully managed and hand-harvested to ensure only the best fruit is used in the winemaking process. The grapes are then sorted and destemmed before being fermented in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks. The wine is then aged in oak barrels for up to 18 months before being bottled.

Château L'Eglise-Clinet produces a range of wines, including the flagship wine, Château L'Eglise-Clinet, which is a blend of Merlot and Cabernet Franc. This wine is known for its rich, full-bodied style, with notes of black fruit, spice, and tobacco. The estate also produces a second wine, La Petite Eglise, which is made from younger vines and is a more approachable wine that can be enjoyed in its youth.
