Château L'Evangile
Pomerol Red Bordeaux Blend
Defective and flat fruit profile. Seemed more like black mold penetration since the classic TCA profile was not apparent

May 11th, 20241995 vintage. Decanted and traced over the course of 1.5 hours. Nice, top-shoulder fill. Great cork. Throwing very little sed. Cocoa powder and crushed violets in a fairly reticent nose. Light-medium body. Soft entry flavors with acidity and remaining tannins picking up intensity on the concentrated finish. Holding steady now and likely for 7-10 years on this plateau. Not improving but not falling off anytime soon. 12.3.23.
