Chateau L'evangile Pomerol 2018 750ML

Producer Description:

Circa 1900, Chateau L’Evangile was widely considered the third-best wine in all of Pomerol, just behind Vieux Chateau Certan and Petrus. Located next door to Chateau La Conseillante, not far from Petrus and only a stone’s throw from Chateau Cheval Blanc in the southeast section of the Pomerol plateau, a small, dirt road separates L’Evangile from Saint Emilion. They have a terroir of clay, gravel, and sand with iron oxide soil and with sections closer to the peak of the Pomerol plateau, near Petrus with more of that all-important, deep blue clay. In 1990, Lafite acquired L’Évangile from the Ducasse family with a goal of ensuring that the property was managed to the same high standard. The first thing they did was to create a refined selection of the Grand Vin, and the introduction of a second wine: Blaison de L’Évangile. The complete renovation of the vat room and the cellar, which was finished in 2004, completed the property’s new configuration. In June 2012, they purchased 6 hectares of vines from La Croix de Gay allowing them to expand their vineyard to its current 22-hectare size. The vineyard began conversion to organic farming in 2018 and was certified as 100% organic in 2021.
