Château L’Evangile 2019 – Pomerol

The nose is fruity and offers some concentration, a fine richness (in creaminess), elegance, dynamism and a certain richness. There are notes of pulpy blackberry, crunchy strawberry and, more slightly, pulpy/fresh blackcurrant, combined with hints of tonka bean, star anise, discrete serene hints, as well as fine hints of creamy raspberry, orange zest (in the background) and coffee. The palate is fruity, tight and reveals juiciness, creaminess, density, tension and a good guideline. On the palate this wine expresses notes of pulpy/creamy raspberry, juicy/fresh strawberry and more lightly crushed blackcurrant combined with touches of blueberry, star anise as well as fine tonka bean, a subtle hint of serum/eucalyptus, a discreet hint of toast and mocha. The tannins are smooth and elegant. Some power on the finish/persistence. Good length.
