“This is the Clos L’Eglise that takes it all to another level with incredible brightness and focus...Pomerol magic.” -James Suckling, 98 points

98 POINTS. Pomerol. Clos L’Eglise. Just…GOOOOOOOOOOO!!! I’m talking about the LEGENDARY 2010 vintage, with PERFECT provenance, direct from Bordeaux, from one of Pomerol’s most celebrated addresses, with a full sixteen years of bottle age already done for you...C’MON!!! This retails for $338. For today – as long as this might last – we’re looking at OVER $200 LESS!!! Better than any other price you’ll find anywhere in this Solar System, my friends!! Let’s go!!!

Rewind to the fall of 2010. Instagram had just launched (October 6th, to be exact), and in Pomerol the Merlot berries were coming in tiny, thick-skinned, and packed with flavor after a dry, cool-nighted growing season. Decanter ranked the vintage right alongside 2005, 2006, and 2009 for Pomerol, and it’s one of the most expensive Bordeaux vintages ever released En Primeur. Fast-forward sixteen years, and the wine has only gotten better. Critical windows pushed early and often for temperance when it comes to popping the cork on the BEASTLY and BEAUTIFUL 2010 Bordeaux vintage, so every last SECOND of the last sixteen years was fully necessary. And now? Welp, Jeb gave it a prime window of 2025 through 2045, so you’re right at the opening bell!

And the wine? Pour it, give it a swirl, and let it breathe. Black raspberry liqueur, dark plum, violet pastilles, wet slate, pencil lead, and dried thyme roll in, with that deep truffle-y undertone and the plush, cashmere-like Merlot texture Pomerol is famous for. Then comes the Cabernet Franc lift, racy and electric, all of it supported by 18 to 24 months in 100% NEW French oak. Antonio Galloni at Vinous calls it “just outstanding, a high-point for this Pomerol estate.” Jeb calls it a “wonderfully complex, layered, seamless Pomerol…flawlessly balanced beauty.” And Suckling says the finish goes on for MINUTES. Top flight, pristinely aged, library Bordeaux like this typically sets you back $300+++...but here? TODAY? We’re CRUSHING that sort of pricing.

Pomerol magic. 98 points. $125. Grab as much as you possibly can…and NOW!!!

While it lasts, people!

"This is the Clos L’Eglise that takes it all to another level with incredible brightness and focus. Full-bodied yet racy and so long. It goes on for minutes with the violets, lavender and hot stones. Pomerol magic." -James Suckling
97 POINTS
"I loved the 2010 Clos L'Eglise, a wonderfully complex, layered, seamless Pomerol that has perfectly ripe red and black fruits intermixed with classic truffle, smoke, and leafy herb nuances. This flawlessly balanced beauty has medium to full-bodied richness, ripe, velvety tannins, and a beautiful finish. Drink 2025-2045." -Jeb Dunnuck
95 POINTS
"Concentrated with sweet, ripe, lush, concentrated, dark red berries, that are complicated with the addition of dark cherry, even darker chocolate and truffle. Plush textures, depth of flavor and energy make everything work here. Give it another 5 years and this will be even better." -Jeff Leve, The Wine Cellar Insider
95 POINTS
"Deep garnet colored, the 2010 Clos l'Eglise leaps from the glass with vivacious baked raspberries, warm red and black plums and dried herbs notes plus wafts of pencil shavings and menthol. Medium to full-bodied, the palate has impressive energy with a firm line of chewy tannins and bold freshness, finishing with loads of zip in its step." -Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
95 POINTS
"Deep garnet in color, the 2010 Clos L'Eglise needs a fair bit of swirling to unlock notes of preserved plums, black raspberries, and wild blueberries, plus hints of crushed rocks, moss-covered bark, and aniseed with a waft of unsmoked cigars. Full-bodied, rich, and with lovely tension, the palate has firm, chewy tannins and loads of black and red berry layers, finishing long and minerally." -The Wine Independent
95 POINTS
"The 2010 Clos l’Eglise is more closed and introverted on the nose compared to the previous vintage, but affording it 15-20 minutes in the glass, it reveals beguiling redcurrant, raspberry coulis, rose petal and crushed stone aromas. The palate is medium-bodied with a little more weight than the 2009. This is vibrant and surprisingly spicy, a liberal sprinkling of black pepper towards the finish that fans out wonderfully. This is just outstanding, a high-point for this Pomerol estate. Tasted at the Clos l’Eglise vertical." -Vinous
94 POINTS
"Dark ruby, purple reflections, delicate bright rim. Delicate herbal savouriness, ripe black berry fruit, liquorice and blackberry, fresh orange zest, fine oak spice. Complex, powerful texture, vivid tannins, chocolaty finish, dark berry and nougat in the aftertaste, it has good ageing potential." -Falstaff
94 POINTS
"Offers gorgeous mouthfeel, range of fruit and length. A velvety feel belies the dense structure buried here, while thoroughly enticing linzer torte, plum sauce and blackberry pâte de fruit flavors pump along, supported by singed spice, apple wood and ganache. Displays flesh, structure, definition and drive. One for the cellar. Best from 2016 through 2030." -Wine Spectator
