Château L'Eglise-Clinet--Vintage 1985
4 bottles per lot
Château L'Eglise-Clinet--Vintage 1985 Pomerol. Château-bottled One slightly damaged capsule. Lightly bin-soiled labels. Levels base of neck or better Tasting note: In a vintage that has turned out fewer superb wines than originally predicted, L'Eglise-Clinet may turn out to be one of the two longest-lived wines of Pomerol (the other being L'Evangile). This wine is far more concentrated than some of the appellation's super stars (Trotanoy and Petrus for example), and has retained a dense, opaque ruby/purple color, as well as an unevolved but promising nose of kirsch, black raspberries, minerals, and truffles. Rich and medium to full-bodied, with magnificent purity and a nicely layered feel on the palate, this youthful, intensely rich L'Eglise-Clinet is evolving at a glacial pace. Anticipated maturity: 2001-2020. Last tasted 9/97 95 points. Robert Parker Bordeaux Book, 3rd Edition, 1998 4 bottles per lot
