In 2022, La Petite Eglise from Château L’Eglise Clinet delivers a dark, polished Pomerol profile, layering ripe black berries and red plum with cocoa, toasted nuts and a gentle floral lift. The palate is plush and concentrated yet impeccably balanced, with velvety, abundant tannins and a sapid, slightly saline finish that pulls you back to the glass. This has real sensuality and precision for a second wine, and clearly reflects the ripe, generous character of the vintage without losing freshness.

La Petite Église is the approachable yet distinctly Pomerol second wine from Château L’Eglise‑Clinet, built largely from Merlot (with a touch of Cabernet Franc in recent vintages) drawn from parcels near the village church and younger vines. It offers the plush, rounded dark‑fruit, floral and truffle notes of the estate’s style, often oak‑polished and medium‑to‑full in body—more immediately seductive than the grand vin but with clear depth and ageing potential.
