Robert PARKER - The Wine Advocate April - 1999
Robert PARKER - The Wine Advocate
Gazin has been one of the most impressive Pomerols over the last decade. That's good news for consumers since it is a large estate, with the potential to produce 10,000 cases. The 1996 is an atypically tannic, serious Gazin with a dense rubypurple color, and lavish quantities of toasty new oak in the nose intermixed with licorice, black cherries, and mochacoffee notes. The wine displays excellent concentration, but is backward, with medium to full body, and moderately high tannin. Give it 5-6 years of cellaring as it will be potentially long-lived. It is unquestionably an impressive effort for a 1996 Pomerol.

The wines of Château GAZIN are very typical of the Pomerol terroir. Their sumptuous generosity offers a wide aromatic palette of red and black fruits that harmonizes with their intense, purple or garnet color. The wines of Château GAZIN also often deliver nuances of plum, chocolate, coffee or licorice, aromas of almond, toasted bread, tobacco and vanilla, and a minty freshness. Maturity gives them a spicy nose, truffle fragrances, notes of undergrowth and animal scents: game, fur, leather... On the palate, they are characterized by the finesse of their tannins, their balance and concentration enhanced by a delicate woodiness. Feminine and charming, due to the dominance of Merlot, Château GAZIN wines can be enjoyed pleasantly after a few years of aging, but they often deserve to wait fifteen, twenty years or more.
