The Château l’Évangile 2010 is a monumental and impeccably structured wine from one of Bordeaux’s greatest modern vintages. The nose is deep and layered, revealing black cherry, plum, cassis, and violet, intertwined with graphite, truffle, and subtle spice. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied and architecturally precise, with firm, finely grained tannins and a vibrant acid spine providing remarkable definition. Flavors of dark berries, cocoa, tobacco, and savory mineral tones unfold with power and composure. The texture is dense yet perfectly balanced, combining intensity with restraint. The finish is extraordinarily long, resonant, and complex—an exceptional Pomerol built for decades of graceful evolution.

Château l’Évangile is one of Pomerol’s most revered estates, situated on the appellation’s prized plateau near Petrus and Cheval Blanc. Owned by Domaines Barons de Rothschild (Lafite), the château combines Right Bank richness with Left Bank precision and discipline. Its gravel and clay soils favor a Merlot-dominant blend, supported by Cabernet Franc for aromatic lift and structure. In recent decades, meticulous vineyard management and refined cellar practices have elevated purity, balance, and aging capacity. The style emphasizes texture, depth, and harmony rather than sheer opulence. In great vintages, l’Évangile stands among the elite wines of Pomerol.
