Chateau Du Domaine De L'Eglise 2020

The 2020 Château du Domaine de l'Église is a powerful and elegant Pomerol with aromas of ripe black cherry, blackberry, plum, cocoa, cedar, and sweet baking spices. Velvety tannins, remarkable freshness, and concentrated Merlot fruit create a refined palate with exceptional depth and a long, silky finish.

Food Pairing: Pair with beef tenderloin, roast duck, lamb shanks, braised short ribs, wild mushroom risotto, aged Gouda, or Comté cheese.

Black berries and cherries with flowers and orange peel. Crushed stone. Some graphite. Iron. Flint stone. It’s medium- to full-bodied. Firm and polished tannins. Very typical and classic. Best ever? 96% Merlot and 4% Cabernet Franc. Needs four or five years to come around. Try after 2028.
