The 2005 L’Evangile’s gorgeous aromatics consist of spring flowers, black raspberries, licorice, truffle and graphite. The wine is full-bodied, rich, still youthful and backward, with sweet tannin and a long, layered, full-bodied mouthfeel. This stunner is capable of another two to three decades of longevity. The greatest L’Evangile since the 1982 and before the heroic duo of 2009 and 2010?

The 2005 L'Evangile is a wine that I could not get my head around. The nose is a bit disjointed with touches of dried blood and scorched earth, and it does not meld together like the 2008 L'Eglise-Clinet served before. The palate has good density and is a little savoury in style, revealing hints of curry leaf with time. This broad-shouldered Pomerol just lacks a bit of finesse, partly due to the style of the vintage, partly due to what might be a little excessive oak. Tasted at the Pomerol dinner at Club Bâtard, Hong Kong.
