What the critics say

92 WAWine Advocate, Robert Parker, 23-02-1996

The most surprising wine in the Rodenstock tasting was the 1975 L'Eglise-Clinet. I have always admired this estate and have given some vintages extremely high marks (1985, 1989, 1990), but I had no familiarity with ancient vintages. The surprise of the week-end was the extraordinary quality of L'Eglise-Clinet. The 1975 was nearly as concentrated as L'Evangile and La Mission-Haut-Brion, as well as extremely youthful with a thick, dark ruby/purple color with no signs of age. Sweet and expansive, with jammy fruit, huge body, and tannin, this approachable but youthful wine should evolve effortlessly for another 25-30+ years. I wonder if all the stocks of old vintages of L'Eglise-Clinet are squirreled away in private cellars in Belgium? The notes for this wine are taken from the description of Series I of the 1995 tasting conducted in Munich by Helga and Hardy Rodenstock. Many years after the tasting from which this note derives allegations were made concerning the authenticity of old and rare bottles of wine sold by Hardy Rodenstock to collectors around the world. The matter has been the subject of numerous articles, litigation and at least one book. Mr. Parker believes that the wines served to him at this tasting were authentic so this note and the others from that specific tasting continue to be posted on eRobertParker.com.

The 1975 l’Eglise-Clinet is one of former régisseur Pierre Lasserre’s better vintages. It certainly displays more fruit intensity on the nose with mulberry and sloe aromas, well defined if just missing the flair of Petrus or Trotanoy. The palate is medium-bodied with slightly coarse tannins, the dusky red fruit infused with leather and mocha. Good structure here, quite fresh and fine substance. This is a survivor rather than a Pomerol that has evolved into something spectacular. Tasting note taken from the Pomerol book by Neal Martin.
