Lot #887. Clos L'Église 2012

Description: Consists of 6 Bottles, 0.75L
Packaging: OWC.
Region: France, Bordeaux, Pomerol.
Score: 94 AG.
"The 2012 Clos L'Eglise is wonderfully lifted in the glass, with plenty of Cabernet Franc aromatics woven throughout a core juicy, layered fruit. Rose petal, mint, cinnamon and sweet red berries grace the palate. Exquisite and beautifully nuanced throughout, the 2012 offers exceptional balance, with polished, silky tannins that round out the creamy finish. The 2012 is quite open today, but it could use another few years to soften further. The 2012 is 80% Merlot and 20% Cabernet Franc. Proprietor Hélène Garcin and her husband Patrice Leveque continue to raise the bar here and at their other properties in the region." Vinous, Jan 2016
Lot Location: Orange County
Estimate: $475
