Chateau Gazin 2016 Pomerol

Medium to deep garnet-purple in color. the 2016 Gazin features a beautifully perfumed nose of violets. Ceylon tea. cigar box. sandalwood and fallen leaves over a core of plum preserves. kirsch and blackberry preserves plus a waft of aniseed. Medium-bodied and elegant. with compelling restraint. it has a seductively plush texture. finishing with bags of poise. perfume and persistence.

The 2016 Gazin has a pure bouquet of luscious blackberry. black truffle and light smoky aromas that gain vigor with aeration. There is an unerring sense of control here. as if keeping something back for later. The palate is medium-bodied with very fine tannin. a silky-smooth texture and beguiling. graphite-tinged black fruit toward the refined. persistent finish. Flecks of clove linger on the finish. Classic Gazin. Tasted twice with consistent notes.

This sophisticated Pomerol slowly creeps up on you. then suddenly you’re in the deep end. The complex and delicate. floral and mangosteen aromas are married to a great tannin structure and nothing about this wine is a jot exaggerated. Long. mineral and spice finish with a weightless quality. Drink or hold.

Neal Martin bewertet den Chateau Gazin 2016 im April 2017:
The 2016 Gazin is a blend of 87% Merlot. 5% Cabernet Sauvignon and 8% Cabernet Franc this year. picked from 22 September with respect to the Merlot and from around 7 or 8 October for the Cabernet Franc. Now this has quite a powerful bouquet for Gazin. more heightened fruit compared to recent vintages with blackberry. briary and pressed flower aromas that are well defined (although my sample demanded two or three minutes to really find its voice). The palate is medium-bodied with a gently grip on the entry. I adore the tannic structure to this Gazin. equidistant between masculine and feminine. a backbone that will ensure this will age over many years. There is abundant. lightly spiced black fruit with a touch of cracked black pepper and clove towards the finish. The 50% new oak will add a little muscle onto the finish. thereupon you will have a really marvelous Gazin that will give three years of drinking pleasure. possibly more.

Tight and silky with plum. blackberry and blueberry character. Medium-to full-bodied. firm and silky. Very linear and bright. A pretty follow-up to the stupendous 2015.

Ripe and engaging. with a pretty display of cherry. raspberry and blueberry fruit flavors that stay fresh. carried by silky structure through the inviting finish. Not super-dense. but really lovely fruit. —J.M.
