Tasting Notes

Enjoyably brambled fruit on the nose, espresso and cocoa bean, well controlled, with supple tannins and plenty of raspberry and damson flavours, alongside firm tannic structure. 26hl/h yield, 50% new oak for ageing, 22ha vineyard, 37 year average age of vines.

Score: 94

Jane Anson, Inside Bordeaux Maturity: 2028-2040 06 March 2025

The 2022 Gazin has improved a little on the nose since I tasted it from barrel, featuring blackberry, wild hedgerow and light truffle scents gaining precision as it opens in the glass. The palate is medium-bodied and nicely balanced with firm tannins and a crisp, rather conservative finish. This is not a bad Pomerol by any means, but I have a nagging feeling that this could have been better—and I write that reluctantly as a fan of this estate.

Neal Martin, Inside Bordeaux Maturity: 2027-2039 12 February 2025

The 2022 Gazin is bright, punchy and focused. Beams of tannin confer a feeling of classicism that is palpable throughout. Dark blue/purplish fruit, crushed rocks, slate, menthol and graphite are all beautifully delineated. Power and finesse come alive in this distinguished, mid-weight Pomerol.

Score: 95

Antonio Galloni, Inside Bordeaux Maturity: 2030-2052 28 January 2025

Lots of spiced black cherries, currants, chocolate, and spicy notes emerge from the 2022 Château Gazin, a richer, medium to full-bodied Pomerol with plenty of mid-palate depth, building tannins, and outstanding length. The tannins will need to be watched here, but this is clearly an outstanding wine in the making.

Score: 92 - 94

Unwinding in the glass with aromas of dark berries, licorice, cherries and spices, the 2022 Gazin is medium to full-bodied, ample and fleshy, with excellent depth at the core, sweet tannins and a long, expansive finish. Despite the drought, the vineyards performed better in 2022 than in 2020 at this address, and the result is one of the better vintages for Gazin in recent years.

Score: 92 - 94

William Kelley, Wine Advocate, RobertParker.com 28 April 2023

A very juicy and nicely chewy young red with black berry, chocolate and cedar aromas and flavors. Medium-bodied with integrated tannins and a fresh and persistent finish.

Score: 95 - 96
