The 1999 Clos l'Eglise was over-shadowed by the feted 1998 at the time, but now with 16 years on the clock, it is really turning into a delightful Pomerol. There is only a touch of maturity on the rim, while the nose is generous: hints of fig infusing the laid-back red berry fruit. It's like a friendly aunt inviting you in the front door. The palate appears now fully mature, but there remains plenty of brambly, almost confit-like fruit to enjoy, supple in the mouth with a fine line of acidity, leather and cedar notes coming through on the finish that is just beginning to show dryness. Enjoy this Pomerol over the next 4-5 years, but probably not longer. Tasted June 2015.

Medium red. Aromas of plum, currant, game, brown spices and nutty oak. Silky-sweet and nicely layered, with good richness and vinosity. Finishes with dusty, broad tannins.
