Château l'Évangile 2000

Château L'Évangile 2000 is a classically styled Pomerol from one of Bordeaux’s most respected addresses, offering the kind of depth, polish, and quiet power that has made the estate so admired over the centuries. Built primarily on Merlot with Cabernet Franc adding lift and structure, this is a wine that combines generosity with finesse and has long been valued for its ability to evolve gracefully in bottle.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, it shows a deep ruby-garnet core that still carries impressive vitality for the vintage. The nose is layered and complex, with ripe blackberries, dark cherries, plum, licorice, truffle, cocoa, and a subtle cedar-and-spice note from oak aging. The palate is full-bodied, rich, and beautifully textured, with silky tannins and a core of concentrated dark fruit wrapped in earthy, savory nuances. The finish is long and elegant, with the wine’s balance and structure suggesting excellent maturity now, while still retaining enough vitality for further cellar development.

Production
Château L'Évangile is based in Pomerol, where its vineyards benefit from Bordeaux’s prized clay and gravel terroirs, helping Merlot achieve richness and Cabernet Franc bring aromatic precision. The grapes are harvested by hand and carefully sorted before fermentation in temperature-controlled tanks to preserve freshness, purity, and complexity. The wine is then matured in new oak barrels, adding structure, depth, and refined spice without overpowering the fruit.

Food & Serving
This wine is a natural partner for lamb, beef tenderloin, roast duck, game birds, truffle dishes, and mushroom-based cuisine. Serve at 16–18°C, and decanting is recommended if opened now to help the aromatics fully unfold and to soften any remaining youthful grip.

Producer
Château L'Évangile has roots dating back to the 18th century and has long stood among the most esteemed producers in Pomerol. Its reputation is built on consistently expressive wines that capture the elegance and sensuality of the appellation, and the estate is widely recognized for producing bottles of exceptional class and longevity. Over time, it has earned strong critical acclaim, including outstanding praise for vintages such as 2000, reinforcing its status as one of Bordeaux’s benchmark properties.
