Clos Saint Georges L'Eglise Pomerol 2020, Bordeaux, France

It is time for some Merlot on this #MerlotThursday. Let's bring Merlot back!

Ruby in color with a wide reddish rim, and medium plus intensity.

On the nose red cherries, plums, red currants, light oak, chocolates and spices.

Medium plus in body with medium acidity.

Dry on the palate with black currants, plums, cooked cherries, light oak, chocolates, spices, coffee, licorice, light tobacco leaf, earth and herbs.

Tangy finish with fine grained tannins and tangy raspberries.

This 5 year old Merlot blend from Pomerol feels very young and not showing its age at all. Fruit forward with nice complexity and good balance. Elegant with good structure.

Starting to drink nicely now, and needs a few more years in the bottle to mature properly. Will continue to age nicely in the next 5 to 7 years.

Good right out of the bottle, and better after 90 minutes of airtime, when the tannins show up and bring more structure. Spicy and entertaining.

Good by itself or with food.


A blend of Merlot and Cabernet Franc. Aged in used French oak barrels for 12 months.

13.5% alcohol by volume.

90 points.

Last tasted 5.5.25 (9.8). ¡Happy Cinco de Mayo! No changes here as this is still the best tasting thing I’ve put into my body regardless of vehicle/medium in recent memory. 8.25.25. — 4 days ago

Interesting CDP that is 100% Grenache. Bright black cherry/plum/berry fruit aromas and flavors with touches of minerals, earth and saline. Bold structure but bright and lively. Extremely fruit forward. Great balance of tannin and acidity. Pleasant, even in its youthful state. Gift from Kase! — 4 years ago

First go round with this baddie. Tasted side by side with the L. Garnier Liqueur Fabriquée Par Les Pères Chartreux (9.8). Occupying a beautiful and necessary niche space between the Les Pères Chartreux and your standard yellow or green Chartreuse (9.3/9.5 respectively). This one is yellow and adds more honeycomb/beeswax along with increased intensity to the equation. Worth the pursuit. 8.25.25. — 4 days ago
