Product Description
JS98 (Château L'Evangile Pomerol, Red, France) So much black truffle in the aroma here with blackberry and blueberry character, too. Full body, solid and stalwart. The layers of velvety tannins are impressive. I love the balance and energy to this. Underlines the greatness of 1998 for Pomerol and harks back to 1950. Just starting to be drinkable now.
WS97 1998 L'Evangile - Wine Spectator - Web Only - 2009: Complex aromas of blackberry, fresh mushrooms, tobacco and wet earth. Full-bodied, soft and luxurious texture to this ripe and opulent wine. Long and decadent too. Just coming around now. Give it more time. L'Evangile at its finest.'88/'98 Bordeaux blind retrospective (2008).
