Chateau L'Eglise Clinet風格樸實，毗鄰當地著名的Saint-Jean教堂。(L'Eglise是教堂的意思)。它與另一酒莊Clos l'Eglise，只相隔一條小巷。
已故的莊主及釀酒師Denis Durantou才情洋溢，他於1983年接掌酒莊，成功將這小酒莊變成Pomeral的明星。其卓越的葡萄酒以豐富、集中和平衡的酒體而聞名。
4.2公頃的葡萄園種植了 85%的Merlot、14% 的Cabernet Franc，最後1%是年代久遠的Malbec。葡萄酒通常在80%的新橡木桶中陳年。
Durantou於2020年去世，他的女兒Noémie和Constance以同樣的熱情，把酒莊繼續經營下去。

2014年的L'Eglise Clinet酒香非常純淨，帶有黑莓、香桃木、鳶尾花和灌木叢的香氣（讓人想起南非的野生灌木叢）。酒體中等，單寧清脆，酸度和精準度極佳，純淨而迷人。以這年份來說，這是Denis Durantou一款出色的Pomerol，精緻而優雅。Denis，真棒！

果香非常純淨和誘人。酒體飽滿，碎莓果、檸檬皮和鮮花的香氣貫穿其中，單寧絲滑，餘韻悠長而美味。從質感和細緻度可見一斑，極之精緻而悠長。
Chateau L'Eglise Clinet is a modest estate situated next to the high-spired church in Pomerol. The Chateau and its neighbour, Clos l'Eglise, is separated only by a narrow lane.
The late Denis Durantou, a highly respected owner and winemaker took over the estate in 1983. He turned this tiny estate into a star in Pomeral which is famed for its excellent quality with the mixture of opulence, concentration and body.
Its 4.2 hectares of vineyard is typically a blend of 85% Merlot, 14% Cabernet Franc and 1% of very old Malbec wines. The wine is typically aged in 80 percent new oak.
Durantou died in 2020, his daughters Noémie and Constance have taken over with the same passion.

The 2014 L'Eglise Clinet has a very pure bouquet with blackberry, myrtle, a touch of iris and a touch of garrigue (actually reminiscent of fynbos, the wild South African shrubland). The palate is medium-bodied with crisp tannin, a silver bead of acidity, wonderful precision and beguiling purity. This is an outstanding Pomerol for the vintage from Denis Durantou, sophisticated and classy, yet the bottom line is quintessentially Pomerol. Bravo Denis.

The purity of fruit is so alluring in this wine. Aromas of crushed berries, lemon rind and flowers follow through to a full body, firm and silky tannins and a long and flavorful finish. All in finesse and texture. So fine and persistent.
