"... sehr reife, füllige, beinahe üppige Frucht, etwas barock daherkommend, mittlerer Körper, aber recht extrahierte Tannine, Balance fehlt noch“ (04/2024)

The 2023 Le Gay is intensely aromatic, floral and quite pretty. Crushed flowers, spice, mint, herbs, licorice and tobacco meld into a core of dark red/purplish berry fruit. All the elements are very nicely balanced in this stylish, mid-weight Pomerol from the Parent family. The 2023 is a blend of 85% Merlot and 15% Cabernet Franc vinified entirely in 100% new French oak barrels. Élevage is projected to be 14 months, about 2 months shorter than normal. Tasted two times.

The richness and opulence to this attracts right away, backed by juicy flavors and full, chewy tannins. Hints of smoke and meat. Very structured. (04/2024)

Red and black fruits, flowery incense, tobacco, and beautifully integrated spice oak all emerge from the 2023 Château Le Gay, a pure, medium to full-bodied, silky, incredibly elegant Pomerol. It plays in the livelier yet concentrated style of the vintage and has beautiful ripeness and polished, abundant tannins. It's going to benefit from just a few years of bottle age and have a broad drinking window. Tasted multiple times. The blend is 90% Merlot and 10% Cabernet Franc, aging in new barrels. I’d put this up with the top Pomerols in the vintage. (05/2024)

The 2023 Le Gay is deep garnet-purple in color. Notes of Morello cherries, juicy blackberries, and boysenberries jump from the glass, followed by hints of cedar chest, sassafras, and clove oil. The medium to full-bodied palate is lively, with bright red berry and floral layers framed by a firm, grainy texture and just enough freshness, finishing a touch woody at this youthful stage. The blend is 95% Merlot and 5% Cabernet Franc, with a yield of 42 hl/ha. (05/2024)

Château Le Gay – Prunkstück im Pomerol

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 ...
