Description: | 93 JS / 91 Jd / 90 Vm. This shows black cherries and mushrooms with bark and chocolate and hints of citrus. It's medium- to full-bodied with round and velvety tannins and a juicy finish. Very gourmand and enticing. Second wine of Chateau L'Evangile but mostly from vineyards with sandy soils. 84% merlot and 16% cabernet franc. Drink or hold. - James Suckling. Deep ruby-hued, with lots of up-front Bing cherry and blueberry-like fruit, the 2021 Blason De L'Evangile is medium to full-bodied and has a round, supple, layered mouthfeel, some floral and chocolaty nuances, ripe tannins, and outstanding length. It's about as textured and sexy as the vintage gets, and I'd certainly be happy to drink a bottle any time over the coming 10-12 years.- Jed Dunnuck. The 2021 Blason de L'Évangile is a very pretty wine. It is the first year the Blason was aged partly in concrete and steel, with a mix of 20% concrete, 15% foudre and the rest neutral barrique-an approach that seems very well suited to a wine that is all about elegance and class. Crushed flowers, sweet red berry fruit, spice, mint and orange peel linger on the delicate finish. The 2021 is lovely. - Antonio Galloni, Vinous Media |
