Tasted at the chateau, the 2007 Clos l'Eglise was a pleasant surprise with quite vigorous black cherry and bergamot scents, just a hint of black tea, certainly showing good intensity after ten years. The palate is medium-bodied with fine-grained tannin, fine backbone, a pinch of cracked black pepper on the entry with a solid, slightly austere but focused finish that is resolutely classic in style. I appreciate the "Pomerol-ness" of this Clos l'Eglise. Drink now and over the next 6-8 years. Tasted March 2017.

Blackberry, toasty oak and raspberry aromas follow through to a full body, with fine tannins and a lovely concentration. There's plenty of chewy, yet polished tannins. A little more in the midpalate would make this outstanding. Best after 2014. 1,500 cases made. -JS

Rich and elegant with the floral (lilac), Burgundian nuance often associated with Le Pin. Lovely depth of fruit on the palate, tannins fine but firm. Definition and persistence on the finish.
