The sommelier info
Château L’Évêché is part of an ambitious project aimed at revealing the full richness of a terroir characterised by deep gravel mixed with iron-rich clay. The estate’s distinctive feature lies in its use of a wide range of Bordeaux grape varieties, enabling the creation of wines of great complexity. Meticulous work in the vineyard and extended ageing, tailored to each vintage, reflect a constant quest for balance between power and elegance. This vintage perfectly illustrates this philosophy, with a structured, deep wine designed to evolve over time.
The nose is intensely expressive, with notes of ripe black fruit, spices and subtle mineral undertones, whilst the palate, full-bodied and structured, reveals velvety tannins, lovely density and remarkable freshness, offering a long, harmonious finish.
This wine is served with

The domain
In the Middle Ages, the Seigneury of Lescours, which possessed the surrounding vineyards , reconstructed its Castle and its private Chapel, here, at the edge of the Dordogne, on this croup overhanging the former port of Saint-Emilion and saint Sulpice de Faleyrens’s village. Today, at the place called " La Chapelle Lescours ", Jean Sébastien Capdevielle and Anthony Ginter pay tribute to this very old cultural heritage by cultivating that 4.2 hectare plot of land made up of old vines of Merlot and Cabernet located in the heart of Saint Emillion.
The domain produces two Grand Crus Vintage wines : L’Evéché and La Chapelle Lescours.View all products Château L Évêché
