The Chateau L'Evangile is renowned for its excellent expression of the Pomerol terroir, a small but prestigious area in the Bordeaux region. This wine results from a meticulous selection of dominant Merlot grapes, complemented by an addition of Cabernet Franc, which provides structure and complexity.

On the nose, Chateau L'Evangile reveals sublime notes of ripe black fruit, such as plums and blackberries, with hints of dark chocolate and a slight trace of damp earth that underscores its close connection with Pomerol's clayey soil. On the palate, it presents itself as rich and velvety, with a perfect balance between acids and well-integrated tannins. The long aromatic persistence is enhanced by subtle touches of spices and tobacco, a legacy of masterful aging in French oak barrels.

Perfect to enjoy with robust dishes like meat roasts or aged cheeses, Chateau L'Evangile is a wine that continues to evolve magnificently over time, promising significant aging potential. An authentic expression of elegance and refinement, representative of the historical excellence of Pomerol.

The winery

Pomerol – Winery in Bordeaux (Libournais, Rive Droite)

Discover the story and wines of Pomerol.

Small, prestigious appellation on Bordeaux’s Right Bank, renowned for its red wines based primarily on Merlot and for soils rich in iron oxides (the so-called "crasse de fer").
Region: Bordeaux (Libournais, Rive Droite)
Country: Francia
Grapes: Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon, Malbec (Pressac), Petit Verdot
Appellation exclusively dedicated to red wines. Predominantly Merlot, often blended with Cabernet Franc. Distinctive soils with "crasse de fer" that influence structure and aroma. A small but highly prestigious appellation with no official classification of crus.
Winery history
Wine region with ancient roots: vineyards have been present since Roman times, with significant development in the Middle Ages through the activity of local religious orders. Pomerol's modern reputation was consolidated between the 19th and 20th centuries; the area has been recognized as a distinct appellation and is included in the AOC regulations established in France.
Production philosophy
Production centered on terroir and on enhancing small parcels: many producers run relatively small estates, favoring practices that prioritize grape quality and the expression of the soil rather than high yields or formal classifications.
Terroir and vineyards
Located in the Libournais near the River Isle, Pomerol is a plateau with heterogeneous soils: clays mixed with gravel and sand, and a subsoil rich in iron oxides. Its boundaries include the Barbanne stream to the north, and it lies adjacent to Saint-Émilion and Libourne.
