Château l’Eglise Clinet is now one of the preeminent names in Pomerol thanks to the early efforts of owner, Denis Durantou, which completely changed the fortunes of the estate in the 1980s. The 1995 is an exceptional wine now perfectly ready to drink, offering wonderful mature Bordeaux character but with plenty of life left in it yet.

Vinous
The 1995 l’Eglise-Clinet is a wine that I have tasted many times, although probably the most interesting was when Denis Durantou poured a magnum against a bottle. One common trait throughout all the bottles is a delightful Provençal-tinged bouquet, hints of sage and wild fennel that percolate through the red berry fruit. There is power here, but also refinement. The palate is medium-bodied with plenty of red fruit again, tinged with menthol and ferrous veins emanating from the Cabernet Franc. It does not fan out or crescendo like the very best vintages, but it is a delicious Pomerol that is drinking perfectly now. Tasted from my personal collection. Neal Martin1st July 2019
