Château L'Eglise-Clinet--Vintage 2008
Pomerol
In original wooden case
Tasting note: A remarkable wine in this vintage, L'Eglise Clinets 2008 has a color almost as dark as the barrel sample of 2010. Classic mocha and caramel-infused crème de cassis and black cherry notes, with hints of licorice and loamy soil soar from the glass of this opaque ruby/purple, aromatically compelling wine. Opulent, expansive, and savory, with a broad texture, a full-bodied mouthfeel, terrific purity and a layered finish, this is another big, massive wine that transcends the vintage character, and will probably need 7-10 years of bottle age. It should keep for 20 or more years as well. Robert Parker, Wine Advocate #194, May 2011
