Château L'Evangile--Vintage 1994
Pomerol. Château-bottled
Tasting note: This brilliant estate, adjacent to La Conseillante, Pétrus, and Vieux-Château-Certan, has turned in exemplary efforts in 1993-95. One of the vintage's most notable successes, L'Evangile's 1994 possesses a dense, saturated purple color, followed by a gorgeously sweet nose of framboise/cassis, with mineral and licorice notes in the background. This medium to full-bodied wine reveals a seamless, opulent texture, fabulous purity to its layers of fruit, as well as superb extraction and equilibrium. This terrific wine is one of the few 1994s that has most of its tannin concealed by the wine's wealth of fruit. It is a gorgeous L'Evangile. Anticipated maturity: 2001-2020. 92 points. Robert Parker, Wine Advocate #109, February 1997
