2017 Château L'Eglise-Clinet, Pomerol

A superb effort: deep and powerful, intense and structured. There's real presence and concentration, with excellent purity on the finish, but it's the mineral complexity that marks this out. And the flavours unfurl for minutes and minutes.

TASTING NOTES

This really rolls on the palate with fantastic fruit and tannins. Full-bodied, structured and layered. Long, long finish. Impressive all the way.
