Critics Ratings

'The 2002 l'Eglise-Clinet has a straightforward bouquet with more tertiary scents than other vintages, airy red berry fruit laced with soy and brown spices, now approaching full maturity. The palate is medium-bodied with more black fruit than the nose suggests, quite pretty though conservative in style with a slightly dour finish. Not bad overall. Drink 2019 - 2035.' - Neal Martin, Vinous, 90/100 (Jul 2019)

'Blackberry and dark chocolate aromas follow through to a medium-bodied palate, with silky tannins and a pretty, delicate finish. Very nice texture and refinement to this wine. I thought this would have evolved even better in barrel. Tasted twice, with consistent notes.' - Wine Spectator, 90/100 (Mar 2005)
