Tasting Notes

Features the vintage's dark graphite spine running through juicy linzer torte and boysenberry fruit flavors, framed by ganache and red licorice notes. Picks up more grip on the briar-tinged finish, while mouthwatering acidity drives underneath. Best from 2014 through 2024. 750 cases made.

Score: 92

The Blason de L’Evangile has copious small red cherries and hints of blueberry jam on the well-defined bouquet. The oak is nicely integrated. The palate is medium-bodied with a supple, spice-tinged opening. There is a lovely peppery note to the Blason, the small percentage (11.6%) of Cabernet Franc lending a slight savoury edge on the finish. Tasted November 2012.

The second wine, the 2010 Blason de l’Evangile, is attractive and straightforward, but richly fruity and showing some of L’Evangile’s tell-tale black raspberry, black currant and licorice notes intermixed with good body and sweet tannins in a forward style. Drink it over the next 10-12 years.

What a nose with green olives, olive oil and dark fruit aromas. Full body, with fabulous soft tannins and a glorious texture. It's long and so pretty. Delicious already. Second wine of L'Evangile. Better in 2015.
