About Clos l'Eglise 2019
Bottle (75cl)

It was in the 18th century, in Pomerol, that Clos l'Eglise was born. Originally covering 14 hectares of land, the property has now become part of the Garcin-Cathiard family's heritage and now covers only six hectares. Its vineyard is based on a terroir made up of clayey-gravelly soils and iron slag. It is planted with 70% Merlot and 30% Cabernet Franc.

Made from a blend of incredibly mature Merlot and Cabernet Franc, Clos l'Eglise 2019 was vinified in 100% new oak barrels.

In the glass, Clos l'Eglise 2019 has a lovely deep purple colour with a garnet red rim and distils a bouquet which opens after a few shakes of the glass releasing various floral notes (roses, violets, ...) coating a core of cooked and jammy black fruits. After a few seconds of aeration, tertiary notes of spices and dried herbs emerge, bringing a touch of elegance and complexity to the nose.
On the palate, the Clos l'Eglise 2019 is moderately full-bodied. Plum and blackberry aromas offer great freshness developing in the mid-palate, supported by a velvety tannic structure to end on a deliciously long and mineral finish.
