Château l'Évangile is a wine estate based in the Pomerol appellation of Bordeaux. In keeping with the general makeup of grape varieties in this subzone, this winery produces a Merlot-dominant wine, albeit one that is consistently among the most highly rated of the Pomerol appellation.
The Château lies in the eastern part of Pomerol, a little way south of the famed Petrus vineyard. Here, the 22-hectare (55 acre) vineyard is made up of iron-rich clay and gravel soils. This kind of soil is well-suited to Merlot, which makes up the bulk of plantings, with around a fifth (20 percent) of the vineyard dedicated to Cabernet Franc.
Dark, dense colour with beautiful glints of violet.
Intense nose revealing stone fruit aromas with light vanilla and roasted notes. Full-bodied and generous on the palate culminating in a silky, smooth finish thanks to the sublime quality of the tannins in this 2018 vintage.
