In keeping with the general makeup of grape varieties in this subzone, Château l'Évangile produces a Merlot-dominant wine, albeit one that is consistently among the most highly rated of the Pomerol appellation. The land was purchased by the Léglise family in the 18th Century, changing hands several times before it was purchased in 1990 by Domaines Baron de Rothschild, owner of Château Lafite Rothschild. Château l'Évangile lies in the eastern part of Pomerol, a little way south of the famed Petrus vineyard. Here, the 22-hectare (55 acre) vineyard is made up of iron-rich clay and gravel soils. This kind of soil is well-suited to Merlot, which makes up the bulk of plantings, with around a fifth (20 percent) of the vineyard dedicated to Cabernet Franc. The vines are harvested by hand and then vinified plot by plot – the vat and cellar rooms were updated in 2004 to help improve this process. After fermentation, the grand vin is aged in oak for 18 months before release. A second wine, Blason de l'Évangile, uses up grapes that are not deemed high enough quality for the top wine.\u003cbr\u003e","published_at":"2023-12-18T16:07:53-05:00","created_at":"2023-12-13T17:15:06-05:00","vendor":"CaskCartel.com","type":"Wine","tags":["Country_France","Nika1212","Other_Wine","Producer_Château l'Évangile","Region_Pomerol","Source_Hedonism1223","Type_Red Wine","Varietal_Cabernet Franc","Varietal_Merlot"],"price":1606900,"price_min":1606900,"price_max":1606900,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":44076995936394,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":null,"requires_shipping":true,"taxable":false,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"2008 | Château l'Évangile | Pomerol (Magnum)","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":1606900,"weight":24494,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":null,"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[],"quantity_rule":{"min":1,"max":null,"increment":1}}],"images":["\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/72_9c41fc1a-482c-4cb9-b513-1602c5652297.jpg?v=1702505756"],"featured_image":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/72_9c41fc1a-482c-4cb9-b513-1602c5652297.jpg?v=1702505756","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":"2008 | Château l'Évangile | Pomerol (Magnum) at CaskCartel.com","id":25677780615306,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.417,"height":540,"width":225,"src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/72_9c41fc1a-482c-4cb9-b513-1602c5652297.jpg?v=1702505756"},"aspect_ratio":0.417,"height":540,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/72_9c41fc1a-482c-4cb9-b513-1602c5652297.jpg?v=1702505756","width":225}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003ch2\u003eRed Wine: 2008 | Château l'Évangile | Pomerol (Magnum)\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe bouquet is pure, precise and beautifully inviting, wafting from the glass in a blend of black plums, black cherries, menthol, chocolate, tobacco leaf, a fine base of soil and a very well done framing of toasty new oak.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOrder from the Largest \u0026amp; Most Trusted Premium Spirits Marketplace! \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeatured in\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eROLLING STONE\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMEN'S JOURNAL\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUS WEEKLY\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNOTICE:\u003c\/strong\u003e Many other small liquor store sites may end up cancelling your order due to the high demand, unavailability or inaccurate inventory counts.
