The 2010 vintage in Bordeaux was lauded as a near-perfect climatic year, characterised by ample sunshine and judicious rainfall. This harmonious balance granted the grapevines optimal nurturing, resulting in a blend marked by exceptional balance, structure, and significant ageing potential. Yields were notably low at just 31 hectolitres per hectare, with production down approximately 25% from 2009, and the wine reached a record high ABV of 14.7%. Château L'Evangile 2010 offers a regal opulence on the palate, with a texture akin to liquid velvet. Blackcurrants and ripe plums pirouette around a core of classic truffle notes, adorned by whispers of violet and an undercurrent of minerality. The tannins are ample yet disarmingly polished, ensuring both approachability in its youth and a legacy that will gracefully unfurl across decades. Expect lingering notes of chocolate-covered plums in the finish. 【A Pomerol masterpiece from a near-perfect 2010 vintage, offering exceptional balance, structure, and aging potential.】 🍴 This esteemed Pomerol is best served at 15.5 degrees Celsius (60 degrees Fahrenheit) to enhance its freshness and lift.
