83,5 procent Merlot, 16 procent Cabernet Franc og 0,5 procent Cabernet Franc. Alkoholindholdet er 13,5 volumenprocent. En utrolig dominerende Cabernet Franc i næsen med denne vidunderlige hindbærsmag. Den rammer virkelig plet. Så kommer de sorte kirsebær. Typisk for Merlot og typisk for 2019, fordi vi har meget lidt brombær, bare en massiv mængde sorte kirsebær. Ultrafin og legende. For meget af det hele i munden. Sorte kirsebær for fuld udblæsning. Mineraler og salt. Strakt ud uden ende. Øjnene spærres op, så høj er intensiteten. Vinen er ekstremt moden, måske den mest modne vin, jeg har smagt i år. Men den er ikke fed, den forbliver legesyg, fordi den på den anden side har en ekstrem krydring og friskhed fra de kølige efterårsnætter. En blockbuster i finesse. Den er et monument, men den er ikke fed. 2018 var klart mere frodig og fed. 2019 er meget finere, selv om den nok er endnu mere moden. Men den har denne friskhed og smag ved siden af. Dette er en anden slags L'Evangile, et monument over samtidshistorien. Og efter tidligere at have smagt Eglise Clinet vil jeg sætte L'Evangile på samme høje niveau. Grandios vin! 100/100

Decanter om: Chateau L’Evangile

From the very first moment your nose approaches the glass you know something special is happening. Seductive, rich, mouth-filling to the point that you really understand what that means. Just pops out of your mouth, with evident density of luscious blackberry and brambled raspberry fruit but also vertical climb through the palate. Violet notes marry with baked earth, grilled liquorice, tension and seduction. Highest level of Cabernet Franc in the blend in recent history, and first time that they have used all of the Cabernet Franc available in the vineyard - also first time to have this touch of Cabernet Sauvignon since the Rothschilds arrived at the property. Have I tasted a better l'Evangile ? Certainly not at this stage, and one of the very few wines in 2019 that I can say without question approaches a perfect score. I don't give 100s at En Primeur but this is off the scale delicious, and I already can't wait to taste it in bottle. 99/100

Suckling om: Chateau L’Evangile

Lots of black-olive, crushed-berry and wet-earth aromas and flavors. Full-bodied, yet polished with a very fine, velvety texture from the tannins. It’s long and structured with a blue-fruit and stone undertone to the palate. Some sage, too. More balanced than in the past. Extremely persistent on the palate. 83.5% merlot, 16% cabernet franc and 0.5% cabernet sauvignon. 97-98/100

Wine Cellar Insider om: Chateau L’Evangile

The beautiful blend of roses, chocolate, licorice, coffee with cream and perfectly ripe plums is exciting. On the palate, the wine is rich, lush, sensuous and velvety, giving you a backdrop for all that sexy plum liqueur and extremely dark cocoa in the full-bodied, concentrated, long, opulent finish. The wine is a blend of 83.5 Merlot, 16% Cabernet Franc and .5% Cabernet Sauvignon. This is the first time Cabernet Sauvignon has been placed in the blend. Harvesting took place September 13-October 3. The wine reached 14.6 alcohol, with no touch of heat or jammy sensations. The Grand Vin was produced from 60% of the harvest. 96-98/100

Jeb Dunnuck om: Chateau L’Evangile

A rocking bouquet of blue fruits, dark chocolate, damp earth, and violet emerges from the 2019 Château L'Evangile, a slightly fresher yet still deep, concentrated expression of this château. Full-bodied, with beautiful tannins, a great mid-palate, and certainly no shortage of length on the finish, it has the silky, seamless style of the vintage, yet I'd still give bottles a solid 7-8 years in a cold cellar. It's a slightly changed style but still gorgeous. 96-98/100

Parker om: Chateau L’Evangile

The 2019 L'Evangile is composed of 83.5% Merlot, 16% Cabernet Franc and 0.5% Cabernet Sauvignon, harvested from the 13th of September to the 3rd of October. The alcohol comes in at 14.6%. Deep garnet-purple colored, the nose hits the ground running with opulent scents of ripe black cherries, dried mulberries, baked plums and warm blueberries plus hints of candied violets, licorice, molten chocolate and wild sage with just a drop of hoisin. Medium to full-bodied, the palate is wonderfully concentrated with seductive layers of exotic spice-laced black fruit preserves and a velvety texture, finishing long and with just enough freshness. Tantalizingly moreish! 96-98/100
