2019 | Chateau Gazin | Chateau Gazin

It's an elegant, solid Pomerol delivering spicy red and black cherry fruits, notes of cedary herbs and flowers, medium-bodied richness, silky yet building tannins, and a great finish.

Reviews:

• Wine Advocate: The 2019 Gazin is a fleshy, dramatic wine that wafts from the glass with aromas of ripe berry fruit mingled with subtle hints of truffle and violets, its new oak already entirely integrated. Medium to full-bodied, velvety and seamless, it's broad and textural, with lively acids, powdery tannins and fine length on the finish.

• James Suckling: A perfumed nose of mulberries, plums, chocolate orange and cloves. Hints of toffee, too. Medium-to full-bodied with firm, ripe tannins. Caressing, velvety and rich core of dark fruit. So supple and polished. 88.5% merlot, 7% cabernet sauvignon and 4.5% cabernet franc.

Producer Information

Château Gazin is Bordeaux wine producer, located on the right bank of the river Gironde in Pomerol. The wines are focused on Merlot which is sourced from the estate vineyard. The Grand Vin of Château Gazin is produced with 85 to 95-percent Merlot, depending on the vintage. The other varieties are usually Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon. It is aged for 18 months in 50 percent new French oak barrels and reaches its prime after 10 to 15 years in the cellar. The second wine, L'Hospitalet de Gazin is homage to a Santiago de Compostela pilgrim hospital that orginally exsisted on the site. It's inaugural vintage was in 1986. In the winery, fermentation of each wine occurs in small concrete vats. Grape varieties are vinified seperately and components are only blended together after the fermentation is complete. The 26-hectare (64-acre) vineyard is planted on one of the highest plateaus in the region. The vines, which are on average 35 years old, are planted on Gunizan gravel topsoils with the subsoil interspersed with iron oxide.
