Château Gazin 2019

Robert Parker Wine Advocate

The 2019 Gazin is a fleshy, dramatic wine that wafts from the glass with aromas of ripe berry fruit mingled with subtle hints of truffle and violets, its new oak already entirely integrated. Medium to full-bodied, velvety and seamless, it's broad and textural, with lively acids, powdery tannins and fine length on the finish.

VertdeVin

The nose is racy and offers elegance, power, delicacy as well as richness (in finesse), a beautiful finesse and intensity. It reveals notes of ripe wild cassis, wild strawberry, small notes of small wild black fruits associated with touches of small blue fruits, cuben/black pepper as well as hints of violet, cornflower and cardamom. The palate is fruity, mineral, well-balanced and offers a fine acidulous frame, a beautiful definition, precision, a beautiful finesse of the grain and tension. On the palate this wine expresses notes of fleshy/juicy blackberry, crushed small black fruits, small notes of juicy/pulpy blueberry associated with touches of crushed wild raspberry, toasted/ripe hazelnut, cardamom, lilac, cornflower as well as discreet hints of nutmeg, camphor and spices. Tannins are fine, elegant and structuring. A small sapidity in the finish. Good length.
