Pomerol AOC 2016 Château Gazin

Château Gazin originates in vineyards located in Libourne, in the heart of the AOC Pomerol.

It is mainly produced from Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc grapes, harvested entirely by hand once the perfect degree of ripeness has been achieved, with careful selection in the vineyard. Fermentation takes place in small concrete tanks, separated for the different varieties, with a maceration on the skins for 2-3 weeks. After the malolactic fermentation, carried out partly in the tank and partly in the barrel, the wine is transferred into half new oak barrels, where it remains to refine for at least 15 months.

Château Gazin has a crimson red color tending towards garnet. The nose carries aromas of red and black berry fruit, well harmonized with persuasive notes of chocolate, coffee, licorice, tobacco and vanilla. With the passage of time it also develops spicy, truffle and leather hints. The mouth reveals a rather intense, structured and complex wine, with round tannins and a pleasant fruity persistence.

Perfect to accompany red meats and game, it is ideal in combination with aged cheeses.
