{"product_id":"chateau-l-eglise-clinet-pomerol-2021","title":"Château L'Église-Clinet Pomerol 2021","description":"\u003cp\u003eNoëmie and Constance Durantou have carried L’Église-Clinet forward following the passing of their father Denis in May 2020, and the 2021 is a wine that speaks both to their father’s legacy and to their own confident hand. A blend of 85% Merlot and 15% Cabernet Franc, aged in 75% new oak, the 2021 is one of the most muscular and powerful wines the estate has produced, defined more by its terroir and extraordinary winemaking than by the vintage’s generally lighter character. James Suckling awarded 99, describing a wine that shows the essence of old-vine Merlot and Cabernet Franc with perfumed character, structured layers, and stony, terracotta undertones compressed on the finish. James Anson awarded 96, Decanter 96, Vinous 96, James Lawther 96, TWI 95, Wine Advocate 94, and Jeb Dunnuck 94. Antonio Galloni described it as a spherical, sensual Pomerol of uncommon depth and intensity, noting crème de cassis, chocolate, new leather, spice, menthol, and licorice. This is L’Église-Clinet defined by the terroir rather than the year, and it is built for a very long life. The price is exceptional. These are very limited.
