2008 | RP 94 | Preorder (Click here for price)
"A structured, masculine Pomerol with licorice, mocha, and black currant notes. Robert Parker gave it 94 points, making it one of the best Gazin vintages of the decade."
2011 | WE 90
"More restrained, with redcurrant, plum, cocoa, and cedar. Critics generally rated it around 89–90 points, making it a lighter, earlier-drinking vintage."
2014 | JD 92
"Balanced and elegant, with black fruit and silky tannins. Scores around 91 points reflect solid quality but not a blockbuster."
2015 | JS 97
"A standout modern vintage, with 97 points from James Suckling and 95 from Jeb Dunnuck. Rich, concentrated, with cassis, graphite, and forest floor notes. Excellent aging potential."
2022 | JS 96 | Preorder (Click here for price)
"Early en primeur ratings are very strong, with 95–96 points from JS and 92–94 from RP/JD. Juicy, chewy, with blackberry, chocolate, and cedar. Promising for long-term cellaring."
About Winery
The Chateau Gazin vineyards cover 64.2 acres in a single lot, with 56.8 acres under vines, located on the renowned clay-gravel plateau of Pomerol. The estate can produce up to 100,000 bottles a year. A second AOC Pomerol wine "l’Hospitalet de Gazin", was created in 1986 in order to reserve the best of the harvest for Chateau Gazin.
The grapes are fermented in small cement vats. The wine is aged for 18 months in oak barrels (50% new) according to the Bordeaux tradition: malolactic fermentation in casks, rackings to separate the fine wine from the lees, fining with egg whites and, if necessary, light filtration.
