Evangile Pomerol, 2010

Evangile Pomerol 2010 is a striking expression of right bank Bordeaux, combining the velvet richness of Merlot with the lift and structure of Cabernet Franc. From one of Pomerol’s most respected estates, this vintage is known for its depth, polish, and impressive balance, reflecting the excellence of the 2010 growing season.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, it typically shows a deep, concentrated ruby-garnet colour with youthful intensity even after time in bottle. The bouquet is layered and refined, with aromas of ripe black cherry, plum, cassis, cedar, graphite, violets, and subtle hints of truffle, tobacco, and spice. On the palate, it is full-bodied and beautifully textured, offering dense dark fruit, fine-grained tannins, and excellent freshness beneath the richness. The finish is long and composed, with mineral detail and savoury complexity. While already impressive, 2010 has the structure and concentration to continue evolving gracefully for many more years.

Production
Sourced from the gravelly and clay-limestone soils of Pomerol, Evangile benefits from terroir that gives both power and elegance, with Merlot thriving in the estate’s clay-rich parcels and Cabernet Franc adding aromatic lift and backbone. The grapes are typically harvested carefully by hand at optimal ripeness, with strict sorting to ensure only the best fruit reaches vinification. Fermentation and ageing are carried out with a focus on preserving precision and expressing the character of the vintage, often with maturation in French oak barrels to add structure, complexity, and subtle spice without overpowering the fruit.

Food & Serving
This is a superb match for richly flavoured dishes such as roast lamb, beef fillet, duck breast, truffled mushrooms, or slow-braised short ribs. It also pairs beautifully with hard, aged cheeses. Serve at around 16–18°C, and decanting for 1–2 hours is recommended if drinking now, especially to open up the wine’s aromas and soften its structure.

Producer
Château l’Evangile is a historic Pomerol estate with a strong reputation for producing elegant, expressive wines that rank among the appellation’s most sought-after. Situated in one of Bordeaux’s most prestigious right bank villages, the estate has long been associated with finesse, depth, and age-worthy wines, and the 2010 vintage is a fine example of that tradition.
