L'Eglise Clinet (3.0L)

From Pomerol

Vintage: 2002
Description: 94 Wa / 17 Jr. Real class in evidence here, a wine that rather embarrassed its contemporaries at the Imw horizontal. The nose is not as immediate as other vintages, kind of creeps up on the you with its pure, ripe black fruits, minerals, hints of espresso and damp earth. Good complexity compared to other wines. The palate is full-bodied, grippy mouthfeel, lovely balance with ripe raspberry, loganberry and briary. Very harmonious and yet the finish is still tight and backward. Needs more time in bottle but another outright success for Mon. Durantou. If you cannot afford the '98 or '05, this could fill that L'Eglise-Clinet-shaped hole. - Neal Martin, Wine Advocate Spicy rich nose. Rather aggressively dry on the finish. Very savoury. For the long term. There is some electric fruit here. - Jancis Robinson
