Description

From an arid vintage but far from arid wine!

Jancis Robinson's EP note:
"Extremely deep crimson. Licorice and other spices on the nose. Wonderfully exotic without being over the top. Great life here with a nice little undertow of quite severe oak to keep it from flab. Exciting, lively but not too sweet. Just in balance. Tar and licorice. Interesting and really lively!"
Score: 18.5

Robert Parker’s reviews of Eglise Clinet 2003 have always been difficult to square with the views of JR and other critics, not to mention the wine itself, but it has helped to hold its price at a fraction of that of neighbouring vintages. Meanwhile the real character of the wine is better caught by Neil Martin, also writing in the Wine Advocate in 2011:

“Tasted single blind at FINE magazine’s vertical in Düsseldorf. This has a precocious bouquet with blackberry, cassis, and blueberry, very opulent but still very well defined. There is a confidence, a sense of brio on this nose. The palate is very well defined on the entry with a touch of mint and vanilla pod interlacing the very pure dark berry fruits. There is still a touch of new oak to be subsumed, but this has succinct balance and purity. Top drawer: this is just superb for the vintage.”
(Neil Martin- The Wine Advocate- February 2011)
