Château L'Evangile Tasting Notes
Low rainfall and a heat wave marked the climatic year. From October 2002 to September 2003 total rainfall was only 555mm (the average annual rainfall is 850 mm). However, this lack of water ultimately had little effect, as the soil remained relatively cool and the vines did not suffer from lack of water. In fact, the vintage owes its particular characteristics to the excessive heat the first fortnight of August. Temperatures were truly exceptional (above 40°C).

Wine Spectator
The milk chocolate, berry and cedar character on the nose is subtle and refined. Full-bodied, with silky tannins and a refined finish. All in finesse and elegance. Best after 2011. —James Suckling, 91 points
