Note di degustazione
The 1961 Gazin evinces a time when this Pomerol just did not cut the mustard. It has a strangely enervated bouquet that can be analogized to a flightless bird. The palate is simple and rather flat with dried rustic fruit, touches of tobacco and tar, but the hollow finish indicates a wine that is not only past its best, but probably never that good in the first place. Tasted at the 1961 dinner Chairman Miaow’s in Hong Kong.

The 1961 Gazin was a fabulous surprise. The wine displayed a knock-out, caramel/chocolate/coffee-scented nose, medium to full body, sweet, expansive, exotic black cherry and fruitcake-like flavors, and a chewy, fleshy, velvety-textured finish. This wine has been fully mature for some time, but it reveals no signs of fruit loss or color degradation. The notes for this wine are taken from the description of Series III - Flight D of the 1995 tasting conducted in Munich by Helga and Hardy Rodenstock. Many years after the tasting from which this note derives allegations were made concerning the authenticity of old and rare bottles of wine sold by Hardy Rodenstock to collectors around the world. The matter has been the subject of numerous articles, litigation and at least one book. Mr. Parker believes that the wines served to him at this tasting were authentic so this note and the others from that specific tasting continue to be posted on eRobertParker.com.
