Beschreibung:

Château L'Evangile--Vintage 2000
1 dozen bottles per lot
Château L'Evangile--Vintage 2000 Pomerol All lots in original wooden cases Parcel: lots 218-222 "This fabulous L'Evangile rivals such recent great vintages as 1998, 1995, 1990, and of course, 1982. With aeration, the thick, unctuous, saturated purple color is followed by scents of blueberries, blackberries, truffles, acacia flowers, tar, and graphite. Full-bodied, with tremendous opulence, intensity, and purity as well as silky tannin and a long, powerful, concentrated finish, with a hint of cocoa/chocolate, I initially thought this was a modern-day clone of the 1975, but now I am not so sure. The 2000 is a prodigious, intense, powerful offering, but the tannins are clearly sweeter than those of the controversial 1975." Robert Parker Wine Advocate #146 (Apr 2003) 1 dozen bottles per lot
