James Suckling 98pt

So attractive on the nose with blackberry, black olive and a hint of brown sugar. It's full-bodied with layers of ripe tannins that flow across the palate. Rich, intense and flavorful finish with flavors similar to the aromas. Fleshy and toned at the end. From organically grown grapes.

Wine Advocate 97pt

The 2018 L'Evangile is composed of 80% Merlot and 20% Cabernet Franc. Deep garnet-purple colored, it comes barreling out of the glass with explosive scents of boysenberries, stewed plums and baked blackberries with hints of lilacs, candied violets, Indian spices and garrigue, plus a touch of black truffles. Full-bodied, rich and powerful in the mouth, this blockbuster coats the palate with layers of black fruit preserves and exotic spices, framed by plush tannins and wonderful energy, finishing long and savory

Wine Enthusiast 92-94pt

A rich, solid texture from the Merlot is lifted by the attractively perfumed 20% Cabernet Franc in the blend of this wine. Its power is palpable, rich and concentrated at the end, making this a wine for aging.

Wine Spectator 94pt

Dark and winey, with a burly tobacco edge framing a core of steeped black currant, blackberry and fig paste flavors. Strong tug of warm earth through the finish, where bay, leather and chestnut notes also chime in. Merlot and Cabernet Franc.
