Dark crimson. Very sweet and luscious on the nose. Some freshness really helps this wine and adds life. Quite zesty and only slightly chewy. A very attractively balanced whole. Definitely a success for this property. (JR)
Dark crimson. Healthy and round and jucy. Not very subtle but honest. Stolid but acceptable. (JR)
A sleeper of the vintage, and possibly the finest Gazin I have ever tasted, the 2001 reveals the best integration of oak at this property in many years. An opaque plum/purple color is accompanied by a glorious bouquet of burning embers, roasted meats, espresso, and sweet plum and blackberry fruit. Richer and deeper than it appeared from barrel, with a tremendous finish, this full-bodied, impressive effort represents a breakthrough for Gazin. There are 6,000 cases of this 85% Merlot, 10% Cabernet Sauvignon, and 5% Cabernet Franc blend. One of the more backward wines of the vintage. Anticipated maturity: 2009-2020+.
