2021 Blason de l'Evangile

2021 - Decisions, Decisions This year more than ever, it was crucial to make the right decisions at the right time. At every step of the growing season, Nature challenged the teams of each estate and all the required decisions to overcome theses challenges were made collectively. Whether it was to overcome the frost, the capricious spring or to decide the harvest dates, each of these decisions shaped the profile of the wines of Domaines Barons de Rothschild in 2021: a vintage in which it was definitively impossible to cheat. To be noted: 2021 is the first vintage to be certified Organic Farming for Château l'Evangile. 2021 Blason de l'Evangile, To the Heart of the Matter The video of the vintage: https://bit.ly/Evangile2021 “When we don’t get down to what’s essential, it’s because we are not clear on what it is” says an Italian proverb. As soon as the wine was run off, the grapes told us where we should go and it was to the heart of the matter. In a year like this with an Atlantic climate, our plots with the precocious gravel-clay terroirs were our best allies in the search for balance.
