Neal Martin: The Chateau l'Eglise-Clinet 2001, which was served
from magnum, is a worthy follow-up to the millennial release and
might be unfairly overshadowed by it. The 2001 has a slightly
lighter and more feminine bouquet, but it delivers the same level
of beguiling delineation and crystalline raspberry and cranberry
fruit. This has a Burgundy-like purity, very harmonious in the
mouth with very fine acidity. There is a sense of harmony
interwoven into this Pomerol—- a gentle build towards the lightly
spiced, truffle-tinged finish that will put a smile on any
wine-lover's face. One of the prettiest wines under Denis
Durantou's reign, it might not have the prowess of the 2000, but it
has plenty of class. Tasted March 2015.
