Vinous

94 POINTS

The 2020 Le Gay is rich and expansive on the palate. Gorgeous, savory notes add complexity to a core of black cherry fruit. This lush, extravagantly ripe Pomerol is not at all subtle, and yet all the elements are very well put together. Hints of chocolate, new leather and licorice linger on the potent finish.

TOP 100 World Wines 2023

So much black mushroom to the dark fruit, such as blackberries and brambleberries. Extremely aromatic. Full-bodied, yet refined and polished, with lovely tannins and fantastic typicity and complexity. It’s so multidimensional and structured, yet there’s a weightless character and personality to it. Thought-provoking and sophisticated. Real Pomerol. Drink after 2028, but a great experience already.

A surprisingly up-front, soft, almost mid-weight effort from this château, the 2020 Château Le Gay offers a pretty perfume of both red and black fruits as well as loads of flowers, spice, leafy herbs, and incense. Medium-bodied, balanced, and elegant on the palate, it has polished tannins, terrific balance, sweet oak, and outstanding length. This exceedingly elegant, seamless beauty lacks the density and concentration of the top wines in the vintage but is nevertheless a gorgeous, classic Pomerol that will evolve for two decades.

Deep garnet-purple in color, the 2020 Le Gay is closed to begin, needing a fair bit of swirling to unlock notes of crushed black and red berries, stewed plums, and fruitcake, plus hints of underbrush, sauteed herbs, and graphite. The full-bodied palate is densely laden with black fruit preserves, framed by firm, grainy tannins and soft acidity, finishing long and decadent. (03/2023)

A ripe and direct style, with a core of kirsch and cherry preserves laced with light licorice and sweet toast notes. The gentle finish lets the toast take the lead as the fruit loses energy. Merlot and Cabernet Franc. Drink now through 2027.- J.M. (2023)

Parker – Wine Advocate

92 POINTS

The 2020 Le Gay will appeal to readers who appreciate this estate's unabashedly modern, demonstrative style. Offering up rich aromas of dark berries, plum liqueur, coconut and creamy new oak, it's full-bodied, broad and unctuous, with a sweet core of ripe fruit, richly extracted tannins and a broad, heady, vanillin-inflected finish. It's a well-made effort in its style, even if the site is surely capable of more.

Noch im 19. Jahrhundert hörte das Anwesen auf den Namen Domaine du Gay, bei ihrem Verkauf an die französischen Schwestern Marie and Thérèse gut einhundert Jahre später hatte sich die „Domaine“ aber bereits zu „Château“ gewandelt. So besaßen die n ...
