Plenty of blackberry, chocolate, citrus wood and black tea on the palate. It’s full and juicy with focused fruit and a long, flavorful finish in a sophisticated way. This will age beautifully, because of the balance and integration. Refined. Drink after 2026.

Varietal Red Bordeaux

There are few regions in the world with stricter regulations in regards to wine production and grape varietals than those found in Bordeaux, France. Here, in the home of the world's finest wines, the type and quality of grapes used is of utmost importance, and the legendary wineries which work on the banks of the Gironde river have mastered the careful art of juice blending to find the perfect balance for their produce. Whilst there are six 'official' Bordeaux grapes, the two key varietals for almost every fine Bordeaux wine are Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, and with good reason. Whilst Cabernet Sauvignon grapes are renowned for their acidity and astringency, strong fruit and spice flavors and full body, Merlot grapes are notably rounded, soft, fleshy and lighter on tannin. The combination of these two varietals, along with a small percentage of (commonly) Petit Verdot or Cabernet Franc, is the perfect balancing act â€“ the two grape varietals cancel out each others weaker points, and accentuate all that is good about the other.

Country France

France, often regarded as the heart of the wine world, boasts a rich history, diverse terroirs, and a captivating variety of grape varietals. From the renowned vineyards of Bordeaux to the picturesque landscapes of Burgundy, France offers a wine lover’s dream journey.

Appellation Pomerol

Pomerol, a distinguished appellation on Bordeaux's Right Bank, stands as a vinous jewel celebrated for its exceptional Merlot-dominant red wines. What makes Pomerol unique is its relatively small size, allowing for an intimate focus on individual vineyards and an emphasis on artisanal winemaking. Unlike many Bordeaux regions, Pomerol does not have a formal classification system, placing the spotlight on each estate's intrinsic quality and distinct terroir. Merlot thrives in Pomerol's clay-rich soils, crafting wines of opulence, velvety texture, and alluring plum and black cherry notes. Iconic châteaux like Pétrus and Le Pin showcase the pinnacle of Pomerol's winemaking prowess. The absence of Cabernet Sauvignon in the blends further accentuates the appellation's uniqueness. Pomerol wines are revered for their approachability in youth and the ability to evolve gracefully over time, exemplifying the timeless elegance and allure of this exceptional Bordeaux appellation.

Smoky edge to the aromatics, vanilla, raspberry and coffee grounds. Lacking a little depth through the mid palate. It's enjoyable, and gains in both interest and complexity as it opens up in the glass. Good, if a little inconsistent. A yield of 38hl/ha. Axel Marchal consultant. Tasted twice.

Wine Advocate

The 2020 La Croix de Gay has turned out very nicely, exhibiting aromas of cherries, berries and plums mingled with hints of dried herbs and espresso roast. Medium to full-bodied, with a fleshy core of fruit underpinned by sweet, powdery tannins, it concludes with a touch of youthful grip, but it's extroverted enough to be approached young.

WS 90pts

Wine Spectator

Ripe, fleshy and forward, this manages some succulence to the mix of raspberry and blackberry compote flavors. The slightly rustic finish reveals generous singed tobacco and warm earth accents. Merlot and Cabernet Franc. Drink now through 2032.

An outstanding effort from this Pomerol château, the 2020 Château La Croix De Gay reveals a deeper ruby/plum color as well as a spicy, complex, expressive bouquet of red and black fruits, loamy earth, dried herbs, and nicely integrated oak. Medium-bodied on the palate, with ripe tannins and solid overall balance, it's going to evolve nicely for 10-15 years.
