A quality merlot with a style true to pomerol. Nothing extraordinary but also no flaws, just a real nice, low cost example of what pomerol wines are all about
First bottle of a case of 6, they are within their drinking window now. I'll probably open one a year moving forward

Off restaurant list, Pnp. First time seeing this second wine from Chateau Gazin in Pomerol. Followed the Fiefs de Lagrange also from 2016 and I like this better. Medium body, very round and aromatic, seems already at peak as oak is integrated and so are the tannins. The lack of grip is perhaps the only weakness here, and indicating that this is for more near term drinking. Nice second wine!
