It is thought that Domaine de l’Eglise was founded in the 16th century and could be the oldest vineyard in the entire Pomerol appellation. The domaine’s 2018 blend is comprised of 95% Merlot and 5% Cabernet France and reflects Pomerol’s exceptional terroir. There are notes of ripe plummy fruit on the nose and palate, followed by firm tannins. Recommended drinking window from 2022 through to 2030.

The 2018 Domaine de l’Eglise is really quite lovely on the nose, featuring ample black cherries, boysenberry and a seductive honey-like background aroma that betrays the warmth of that year’s later summer. I admire the purity of these aromatics. The palate is medium-bodied with saturated tannins that lend this Pomerol a satisfying velvety texture. Bright upon first acquaintance, with aeration it actually draws back a little, ending up quite firm on the finish but very focused and harmonious. As I remarked from barrel, Domaine de l’Eglise has produced a very commendable follow-up to the 2017, indicative of a Pomerol that pulled up its bootstraps.Neal Martin21st March 2021
