Magnum. Very dense and still with very notable tannins and tightness! Thick and dense with some future development ahead of it. If the Lynch Bages 2005 served beside it was surprisingly evolved, this was the reverse. (JR)
This is one estate where the 1989 outshines the 1990. The 1989 displays a youthful deep ruby/purple color, and dense, tannic, muscular flavors that are just beginning to reveal sweetness and opulence. Backward, youthfully tannic, and grapy for a 1989, this artisinally-styled, robust, muscular Pomerol will benefit from another 2-3 years of cellaring. It should keep for 15-20 years.
Tannic monster. Full-bodied, with masses of superripe fruit and mouthpuckering tannins. Port lovers like me love this stuff. Age it for decades to come.--1989 Bordeaux horizontal. Best after 2006. James Suckling,Wine Spectator 1999

There’s been lots of change at Ch. le Gay since the Parent family arrived in 2002 – with vineyards replanted, the cellars renovated and the winemaking adjusted. No surprise, perhaps, that quality is now higher than ever.
