The Merlot seems to wrap its plush arms around the tight Sangiovese

The 2020 Blason De L'Evangile is a more forward wine, offering terrific plum and darker berry fruits as well as classic Pomerol gravelly earth, chocolate, and leafy tobacco aromatics. Medium to full bodied, it's as seamless as they come, with terrific balance and supple tannins. It will drink brilliantly for 15 years. The blend is 87% Merlot and 13% Cabernet Franc, brought up mostly in once used barrels
