Always a great value in Napa Chard
Winemaker's Notes: "The 2015 Clonale offers a highly aromatic nose displaying notes of lime zest and nectarine along with a subtle struck-match savouriness
just under 900 cases were produced
toasted spice and licorice to go with a full-bodied
very perfumed vanilla-tinged nose that reminds me of the strawberry macaroons I buy from Merignac airport when I leave Bordeaux (they are delicious incidentally)
2012 L'Evangile, Pomerol Always a great value inThis dark ruby plum Pomerol offers up sweet black cherry and blackcurrant fruit, velvety tannin, medium to full body, and a nice lushness and silkiness. A beauty with great fragrance and suppleness, its not enormously endowed, as a great vintage would be, but it is certainly an outstanding wine and a brilliant effort from Evangile in 2012. Drink it over the next 15 years. (RP)
