Chateau L'Eglise-Clinet Pomerol (Minimum order: 6 bottle case) FUTURES 2025 Pre-Arrival
This wine was formerly known as Clos l'Eglise Clinet.
Critic tasting note: (2025 vintage)
"Violets, lilies, chocolate, espresso, plums, black cherries, and truffle aromatics already pop in the perfume. The palate is where the action really takes place. With just a swirl, and sip, you find concentrated layers of fleshy, opulent, creamy-textured, fruits, berries, chocolate, wet earth, and espresso. The complex, and powerful, velvet-drenched, opulent, lengthy finish continues along the same theme with a vibrant, polish to the hedonistic end notes that keep everything going long after your glass has been finished. The wine is produced from a blend of 90% Merlot with 10% Cabernet Franc, 14.5% ABV. The harvest took place September 4 - September 12. Drink from 2030-2065." - Jeff Leve, The Wine Cellar Insider (99/100)
"The definition, freshness and complexity are very impressive already. It’s like a finished wine. It’s medium-bodied with precise and vivid flavors of blackberries and cool olives. Long, energetic and dense yet not heavy. Classy. A blend of 90% merlot and 10% cabernet franc." - James Suckling (97-98/100)
