One of the most consistently high-performing estates in Pomerol, Château l’Evangile has a history dating back to 1741. In 1990 l’Evangile was sold to the owners of Château Lafite Rothschild, who have invested heavily in the estate with a new vat room, cellars and improvements in the vineyard. The vineyard covers an area of 22 hectares on the perimetre of Pomerol and Saint-Emilion in between the illustruous Petrus and Cheval Blanc over the border. The vineyard, like its neighbours Cheval Blanc and Figeac, includes a gravel outcrop making it atypical of the Pomerol terroir. The vineyard is planted to Merlot (80%) and Cabernet Franc (20%). Without a classification system to fall back on communication is the key in Pomerol after quality. A new management team at Domaines Baron de Rothschild helmed by Saskia de Rothschild and Jean-Guillaume Prats is sure to change the reputation of this gem and make this a brand to keep a close eye on.

I like this Reserva from RdD. 100% Tempranillo aged for 24 months in oak barrels.
3.8 stars with more aging potential.
A deep ruby red and purple shades. Thick long legs in the glass.
On the nose medium intense aromas of blackberries, black cherries, black raspberries, horse saddle, leather and slightly oak.

90 pts Given the quality of the Crianza I really was delighted to find this Reserva, needs way more time to fully flower however, still very enjoyable for me now. The Crianza is ready now, but this shows sleeping intensity and great future potential and longevity, wait a few years however.
Typical earthy red fruit with good use of oak, dusty vanilla. Weighty, full with a long finish, it will be a star in the future.
