Chateau Gazin 2023 Pomerol

"...the 2023 Gazin has evolved positively since the en primeur tastings, revealing a more expressive and approachable bouquet than initially anticipated, with aromas of dark berries, rose, cassis and dark cherries. Medium- to full-bodied, round and layered, it is built around a fleshy core of fruit framed by powdery tannins, concluding with a long, ethereal finish. Quite dense and well structured, it has the substance to reward extended cellaring. Drink 2028-2043." 93 points - Yohan Castaing, RobertParker.com - April 2026 Merlot (89%), Cabernet Sauvignon (7%) and Cabernet Franc (4%) 2023 - 14% abv One of the larger estates in the appellation, Chateau Gazin was reputedly built on the site of a 12-century pilgrim's hospital.
