1989 Château La Croix de GayPomerol Red Bordeaux Blend more |
4/24/2015 - La Cave d'Argent Likes this wine: 91 pointsFrom a bottle purchased upon release and cellared in pristine fashion, this wine was double-decanted off its heavy sediment, allowing three hours of aeration prior to funneling back into the rinsed bottle. It was then presented in single-blind fashion at a Right Bank Bordeaux tasting. The wine retains a medium garnet robe with a brick rim. On the nose, it offers a bouquet of red cherries, dried herbs, coriander, earth and tobacco. Medium-bodied, round, seamlessly alcoholic (12.5%) and with melted tannins, it delivers flavors which mirror the nose. The middle palate is solid and the wine concludes long and smooth. No doubt on plateau, well-cellared bottles should provide pleasure for another 3-4 years. Drink now-2019. |

Full bodied, very well structured with beautiful juicy acidity and round tannin with still a good bite. The second day the wine was even more delicious, so the wine can be cellared for several years more. 93 - 94 |

7/17/2013 - Jeff Leve wrote: 91 pointsPomerol is not a region known for value wines. Bargain hunting wine lovers should take a good look at this beauty, as it combines an opulent, lush styled Pomerol with good value. Lots of juicy black plum, licorice and earthy character are easily found here before ending in a plush, black cherry finish. Drink now, or over the next decade. |

10/28/2022 - MicklethePickle Likes this wine: 91 pointsPopped and poured. Young, but totally approachable and more than drinkable. Soft but structured, this is a nice wine. Dark cranberry color. Red legs. Feminine nose, with a mineral profile. Very satisfying palate, rich, cocoa, pretty, this strikes just the right note. Hard to imagine a wine of this age drinking better. Slowly unwinds and builds into the finish. Count me among this wine's fans, especially at the price (tiny, given the quality). 4-12-17-8: 91/100. 2 people found this helpful, do you?

1/3/2016 - skurtz Likes this wine: 91 pointsOpened to breathe for 1h. Lots of earthy and woodsy aromas, coupled with berry fruit. A dirty Bdx for sure but lots of fruit and cedar. Tannins completely integrated. Well within its drinking window; I will try to hold off for a year before I open my last bottle. Tonight with grilled Alaskan salmon. |

8/31/2022 - 559Cheers Likes this wine: 93 pointsThis bottle very structurally sound, aged Pomerol, fruit still going strong. Bottle to sip slowly. Incense, tea, forest floor, meaty, and age. Light green and briar. This bottle could last another 20+ years. |

2/12/2021 - kim@meko.ru Likes this wine: 92 pointsDecanted 1 hour. Black fruits, leather, menthol, quite integrated tannins with some grip remaining, med+ acidity that shows a good shelf life potential. Ripe cherries in the aftertaste. Excellent example of Pomerol, specially for the second wine. I’ll keep my other bottle for few years more. |

Garnet color witnessing the vintage, still intense hints of oaked bordeaux at the nose, powerful ripe red fruit at the palate. Smoothed acidity and round faded tannins. Top QPR at 25 eur. 91+ |
