Note di degustazione
Quite floral in nature, the wine is loaded with sweet, ripe cherries, and juicy plums. Medium-bodied, soft, and elegant, with a touch of chocolate, espresso, and cherries in the finish, this will drink well on release.

Ample red and black fruits, spice, sappy herbs, and some leathery nuances emerge from the 2022 Château La Croix De Gay, a complex, medium to full-bodied, fruit-forward Pomerol that stays nicely balanced. This fruit-loaded beauty is going to drink nicely right out of the gate.
The 2022 La Croix de Gay is deep garnet-purple in color. A little shut-down to begin, with coaxing the nose opens to reveal scents of stewed black and red cherries, prunes, and mocha, followed by wafts of charcoal and damp soil. The full-bodied palate is dense and spicy, with soft tannins and well-judged acidity, finishing on a savory note.
Wide and structured red with a medium to full body and fine-grained, silky tannins. Lingering and deep dark-fruited finish.
