The origins of Château Gazin date back to 1772, when Antoine Feuilhade purchased the Pomerol vineyards. The Château Gazin vineyard is unique in the region because its vines are planted in a single block. This is unusual for Pomerol, where many vineyards consist of non-contiguous plots. This estate neighbors the stars of the region, including the iconic Château Pétrus. With its elegant, sensual, and age-worthy wines, Château Gazin is a hidden gem for any Merlot lover. Gazin 2019 is a meaty, serious, and demanding wine that rises from the glass with aromas of ripe berry fruits mixed with subtle notes of truffles and violets and a well-integrated oak finish. Velvety and smooth, with good texture and vibrant acidity, powdery tannins, and a delicate length on the finish.
