Chateau L'Evangile is one of the prestigious estates in Pomerol and produces some of the most sought-after wines in the appellation.
It is located in the far east of the Pomerol appellation and its vineyards border those of Chateau La Conseillante, Chateau Gazin and Chateau Cheval Blanc. Its 14.1 hectares of vineyards (Merlot 78%; Cabernet Franc 22%) lie on deep gravel beds pitted with sand and clay.
The wine is vinified traditionally, undergoing a lengthy cuvaison followed by maturation in oak barriques (40% new) for 16-20 months.
L`Evangile has always been a top-class estate but quality has been pushed noticeably higher since Domaines Baron de Rothschild of Chateau Lafite acquired a majority shareholding in 1990. With Michel Rolland as consultant winemaker, the wines of L'Evangile are now challenging Petrus and Lafleur in terms of their sheer class and quality.
