Chateau Clos L'Eglise 2010

Avis professionnels

Robert Parker (95)

Deep garnet colored, the 2010 Clos l'Eglise leaps from the glass with vivacious baked raspberries, warm red and black plums and dried herbs notes plus wafts of pencil shavings and menthol. Medium to full-bodied, the palate has impressive energy with a firm line of chewy tannins and bold freshness, finishing with loads of zip in its step.

James Suckling (98)

This is the Clos L’Eglise that takes it all to another level with incredible brightness and focus. Full-bodied yet racy and so long. It goes on for minutes with the violets, lavender and hot stones. Pomerol magic.

Jancis Robinson (16.50)

Tasted blind. Deep smudgy garnet. Lifted and minty on the nose but still some black fruit. Tarry, thick and chewy. Massive structure and masses of very ripe fruit. Chewy and alcoholic but it’s big in every way and therefore balanced

Falstaff (94)

Dark ruby, purple reflections, delicate bright rim. Delicate herbal savouriness, ripe black berry fruit, liquorice and blackberry, fresh orange zest, fine oak spice. Complex, powerful texture, vivid tannins, chocolaty finish, dark berry and nougat in the aftertaste, it has good ageing potential.
