Opening with a lifted mix of dark plum, blackberry and blueberries laced with floral notes and gentle oak spice, Chateau Gazin 2016 feels poised and finely etched rather than showy. The palate is medium-bodied yet deep, with pure black fruit, a subtle leafy-earthy undertone and firm, polished tannins that promise a long, graceful evolution. As it relaxes in the glass, the wine gains in fragrance and charm, showing why this structured, classically built Pomerol is so admired in 2016.

Château Gazin is the grand vin of a historic, family-owned Pomerol estate, crafted predominantly from Merlot with small amounts of Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc grown in a single 26-hectare block of Günzian gravel over blue and green clay, adjacent to Petrus. Known for its supple, Merlot-driven richness, refined structure and capacity to age, the wine expresses the iron-tinged clay-gravel plateau of eastern Pomerol with polished, tobacco-and-vanilla-tinged profiles that gain complexity over 10–20 years in bottle.
