Note di degustazione
An incredibly classy Pomerol that does everything right, the 2004 Pomerol offers a medium to full-bodied, seamless, elegant style that carries textbook notes of currants, truffle, cedary herbs, and floral nuances. With solid mid-palate density, a wonderful core of sweet fruit, and integrated tannins, it's drinking at point today yet easily has another 8-10 years of prime drinking ahead of it. It's a beautiful 2004!

One of the vintage’s most astonishing wines, this superb effort boasts a dense plum/blue/purple color, aromas of camphor, graphite, roasted meats, and black as well as blue fruits, a full-bodied, powerful style, low acidity, ripe tannin, and excellent concentration. Give this beauty 3-4 years of bottle age, and enjoy it over the following two decades. It has the potential to be one of the vintage’s longest lived wines. Kudos to the proprietor, Catherine Pere-Verge, and her winemaker, Michel Rolland, for exploiting this property to its fullest potential.
Bright red-ruby. Musky aromas of plum, truffle and nutty oak, with a suggestion of leesy complexity. Sweet, pliant and rich; quite full for the vintage. Finishes sweet, ripe and long, with fine-grained, supple tannins. An excellent showing.

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.
