Well, since I didn’t get a Jasud offer, snagged some of this baby:

2012 Chateau L’Eglise Clinet

I have some already, but it tastes better now that WK calls it WOTV.

:wink:

Are those the K&L bottles? I’m always looking for that wine because I’ve belatedly fallen in love with L’Eglise Clinet the last few years and 2012 is a birth year for my oldest.

Yes, indeed, they also have the 2008, which I strongly recommend. I also love the 2014. Such a fantastic ChĆ¢teau. Often lost in the shuffle during discussions along the likes of Trotanoy, VCC, Conseillante and L’Evangile. It’s in the class for sure.

I think it might be my favorite. I still love Trotanoy but it is so dense and tightly coiled. Also, L’Eglise Clinet is supposed to have the oldest Cabernet Franc vines in Bordeaux, which may be a reason it slides into my wheelhouse so easily. It’s also just sexy. There was a bunch of OWC going through HDH in the last 6 months so I grabbed cases of 2006, 2016 (750 & mag, the other daughter’s birth year), 2017, 2019, 2020. I didn’t bid high enough on the 2011 so didn’t grab that. I may need to calm down because I tend to fixate. My Bordeaux collection is 58% Magdelaine and 27% L’Eglise Clinet after this last splurge.
