The deep ruby,purple-color is a beauty. Revealing notes of black fruits and white flowers, medium-bodied and lush with sweet tannin, a pliant, opulent texture and a long, rich finish reveal hints of forest floor, truffles and licorice.

Parker Review:
While not up to the quality level of the stratospheric 2000, the deep ruby/purplecolored 2001 lEvangile is a beauty. Revealing notes of beef blood, black fruits, and white flowers, it is mediumbodied and lush with sweet tannin, a pliant, opulent texture, and a long, rich finish revealing hints of forest floor, truffles, and licorice.
