Expert Ratings

James Suckling 97/100

"Praised for cedar, tea-leaf, hazelnut, ripe fruit, citrus peel, and smoky undertones. Full-bodied with juicy tannins and complex structure."

Robert Parker 93/100

"Medium to deep garnet-purple; aromas of baked plums, Christmas cake, chocolate, coffee, and smoked meats. Firm tannins, long finish."

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.
