Chateau Gazin 2003

Professional reviews

Robert Parker (88)

For reasons that escape me, Gazin is never easy to evaluate young, and I often upgrade my opinion after the wine has had several years in the bottle. Performing much better from bottle than it did from cask, the 2003 Gazin is lavishly oaked, but also reveals plenty of black cherry and currant notes, sweet, surprisingly full-bodied, powerful flavors, and moderate tannin. For a 2003 Pomerol, it is an atypically big, back-strapping, muscular effort that will benefit from 2-3 years of bottle age.

Aromas of black olive, fruit and fresh herbs follow through to a full-bodied palate, with fine tannins and a silky, refined, caressing finish. Lovely tannins. Nicely done.
