Château Gazin 2011

"A powerful, virile 2011, Gazin reveals a dense ruby/purple color, a big, meaty, earthy richness, lots of coffee, black cherry liqueur and spice notes, and a full-bodied mouthfeel. It will benefit from another 3-4 years of cellaring and should keep for 15+ years." - Robert M. Parker Jr., The Wine Advocate (4/29/2014, Issue 212) Rating: 93+, Drink: 2017-2032

"Barrel sample. This firmly tannic wine has a dry character that lays over lighter fruits. With soft spice and some sweetness, this wine is developing already." - Roger Voss, The Wine Enthusiast (5/2012), Ratings: 89
