Peter Maude Fine Wines
2016, Château Gazin, POMEROL
$238
Bordeaux Blend: Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc.
A rich and elegant Gazin, cohesive yet still extremely young. You can taste the Cabernets coming through strongly, an elegant, stately expression of cassis with a silky texture and nice balance. The palate is intense and concentrated but with a real sense of lift. It's always a wine that takes its time to show its colours as it's a touch austere in its first five to eight years, but this is going to age beautifully. 94 Jane Anson, Decanter.
