1988 Château l’Evangile - 波美侯 - 1 Bottle (0.75L)

尽管波美侯（Pomerol）葡萄酒从未被列入任何等级分级，Château L'Evangile 无疑是该酒区中最出色的酒之一。该酒庄于18世纪中叶由利布尔努瓦（Libournaise）家族Léglise创建，他们与Petrus（Arnaud家族）、La Conseillante（Catherine Conseillant）和Trotanoy（Giraud家族）的业主共同促成了波美侯葡萄园的形成。此前称为 Fazilleau 的酒庄，在19世纪初在律师Isambert的带领下改名为L'Evangile，他一直是所有者直到1862年。由Paul Chaperon收购后，Château L'Evangile仍处于其后裔Ducasse家族的掌控之下，直至1990年。自那时起，拉菲特罗斯柴尔德酒庄的团队逐步重新掌控了酒庄。前任所有者们早已充分意识到这片卓越风土的非凡潜力，风土包含深厚而不均匀的底土，由砾石夹杂黏土与砂组成。甚至1956年冬季的严寒也未能完全击垮Château L'Evangile 的葡萄园。Louis Ducasse 接手酒庄，尽管当时已是濒乎枯竭的境地，他重建了葡萄园，并在数年内将其提升至最佳水平。这个水平即使在他1982年去世后也未下降，因为他的妻子以非凡的坚韧接任。自1990年以来，该酒庄归巴朗·德·罗斯柴尔德集团所有，集团为其投入了全部必要的关注与投资。

A propos de la cuvée
Aujourd'hui, la nouvelle équipe pratique des vendanges les plus tardives possibles afin d'obtenir des raisins d'une parfaite maturité, un rendement limité et un élevage de 18 mois dans des fûts de chêne neufs à 70%. L'ambition clairement affichée de hisser l'Evangile au plus haut rang de l'appellation semble atteinte : ces vins d'une grande richesse, à la robe rubis foncé et aux arômes de framboise, de mûre, parfois de réglisse, font preuve d'une capacité de garde impressionnante.

Although Pomerol wines have never been classified, Château L'Evangile is undoubtedly among the best wines in the appellation. The estate was created in the middle of the 18th century by a Libourne family, the Léglise, who contributed to the constitution of the Pomerol vineyard, alongside the family owners of the estates of Petrus (Arnaud family), La Conseillante (Catherine Conseillant) and Trotanoy (Giraud family). Until then called Fazilleau, the estate took the name of the Gospel at the very beginning of the 19th century, under the leadership of the lawyer Isambert, who remained the owner until 1862. Bought by Paul Chaperon, Château L'Evangile remained in the fold of his descendants, the Ducasse, until 1990. Since that date, the Lafite Rothschild Castle team has gradually regained control of the estate. The former owners were already perfectly aware of the remarkable potential of this exceptional terroir, consisting of a deep and heterogeneous basement of grave mixtures of clay and sand. Even the formidable frosts of the winter of 1956 could not quite get the better of the Château L'Evangile vineyard. Louis Ducasse takes over the estate still bloodless, renews the vineyard and raises it in a few years to its best level. A level that will not decline, even at his death in 1982, since his wife takes over with remarkable tenacity. Since 1990, the estate has been owned by the Barons de Rothschild group, which has devoted all the necessary attention and investments to it.)
