Tasting Notes
The nose is intense with toasted and vanilla-scented notes, accompanied by notes of fresh fruit. On the palate the wine has great intensity with dense, silky, ripe tannins. The finish is long and powerful.
History
In 1990, Domaines Barons de Rothschild (Lafite) acquired L'vangile. DBR (Lafite)'s initial influence included a more refined selection of the Grand vin, and the creation of Blason de L'vangile as a second wine.
Regional Information
The southeast Pomerol plateau features a long line of surface gravel. Three vineyards, including L'vangile, share this rare soil.The vineyard covers 22 hectares, made up of sandy clay soil with pure gravel, on a subsoil containing iron residues. The grape varieties consist of Merlot (80%) which contributes to the wine's fruity flavour and body, and its unmistakable suppleness; and Cabernet Franc (20%), which brings finesse and structure.

Vinification Details
