The 2024 Gazin is classy and elegant, even if it is a bit strict at this stage. Rose petal, mint, blood orange and cinnamon meld into a core of red-toned fruit. There's gorgeous textural depth and resonance here. Clean saline notes extend the finish. All this needs is a bit of polish and pliancy in the mid-palate, but élevage should take care of that. Gazin is distinguished in 2024 by its unusually high presence of Cabernet Sauvignon (10%), along with 90% Merlot and no Cabernet Franc in this vintage. Harvest started on September 20. Tasted three times. 04/2025

The 2024 Gazin has a light, tertiary bouquet with blackberry and raspberry fruit. This needs a little more vigor but it is nicely defined. The palate is medium-bodied with slightly chewy tannins, a healthy dash of white pepper and a structured, grippier finish than its peers. I appreciate the freshness in this Pomerol and it should show well once in bottle, but this needs more substance. A couple of samples show some dryness on the finish. 04/2025

Aromas of minty berries and toasty oak introduce the 2024 Gazin, a medium-bodied, fleshy and layered wine that concludes with a touch of chewy structure. 04/2025

A blend of 90% Merlot and 10% Cabernet Sauvignon, the 2024 Château Gazin reveals darker berries, tobacco, graphite, and leafy tobacco aromatics. Beautifully textured, round, and opulent on the palate, it shows plenty of mid-palate depth and ripe tannins. 05/2025

Beau rouge sombre, aux reflets noirs. Nez très aromatique, fin, fruité et subtil. Délicat en entrée de bouche, très savoureux au milieu, le vin fond sur le palais, juteux, subtil et long. C'est très bien fait et difficile à cracher. Ce pourcentage de cabernet sauvignon est très appréciable. Assemblage : 90 % merlot, 10 % cabernet sauvignon. Degré d'alcool : 13°5. Rendement : 23,4 hl/ha. Production : 35 000. 04/2025
