Clos L'Eglise 2011

This batch for sale is directly released ex-Château from the cellar of Clos l'Eglise in 2019.

"Another beautiful wine from the Garcin family, Clos l’Eglise, which had been a moribund estate for decades, leaped to the forefront in the late nineties where it has remained ever since. The dense ruby/purple-hued, medium-bodied 2011 possesses abundant notes of sweet black cherries, licorice and plums as well as impressive purity, texture and length. It should be at its peak in 2-3 years and last for 12-15. Usually, this is a blend of 80+% Merlot and the balance Cabernet Franc." - Robert Parker Jr., The Wine Advocate, (4/29/2014, Issue 212), Rating: 93, Drink: 2016-2031
