2012 Château l'Evangile

Pomerol, Bordeaux | 80% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Franc

The 2012 L'Evangile is a masterclass in Pomerol finesse—a velvety whisper of black cherry, truffle, and violets, with Cabernet Franc's peppery lift keeping things fresh (JS 95pts, WA 94pts). While approachable now, its refined tannins and lively acidity suggest a graceful evolution through 2035+. A sleeper vintage that proves L'Evangile's magic doesn't need a solar year to shine.
