Description
Tasting notes
Reviewed by: Lisa Perrotti-Brown
Deep garnet-purple colored, the 2015 Blason de l'Evangile—a blend of 61% Merlot and 39% Cabernet Franc—has a nose redolent of warm plums, baking spices, Christmas cake and mincemeat pie with touches of chocolate box and aniseed. Medium to full-bodied, the palate is laden with spicy black fruits, supported by soft, velvety tannins and great freshness, finishing long with some earthy layers coming through.
About the Producer
The Blason de L'Evangile, chosen from vats with the same bases as the great wine, presents characteristics close to the great wine with, however, a lesser aging potential since its aging in barrels is shorter. It should be drunk younger than its elder.
