Château L'Eglise-Clinet--Vintage 1998
6 bottles per lot
Château L'Eglise-Clinet--Vintage 1998 Pomerol Tasting note: This wine has been so impressive over the last decade that it can now be said to rival Petrus. This effort should turn out to be one of the longest-lived Pomerols of the vintage. It is backward, and has closed down since bottling, but make no mistake about it ... this is a dazzling, serious vin de garde. An opaque purple color is followed by a restrained but promising bouquet of sweet black raspberries intermixed with vanillin, caramel, and minerals. The wine is full-bodied, powerfully tannic, beautifully textured, and crammed with extract (an assortment of black fruits). While it is bursting at the seams, purchasers will need to wait a minimum of 7-8 years. Anticipated maturity: 2008-2035. 94 points. Robert Parker Wine Advocate # 134 (Apr 2001) 6 bottles per lot
