The freshness and finesse of a great Pomerol

The property

Testifying to very ancient origins, the Château Gazin was acquired in 1917 by Louis Soualle, great-grandfather of the current owners, the De Bailliencourt dit Courcol family.

The vineyard

An undeniable reference among the wines of Pomerol, Château Gazin oversees a superb 26-hectare vineyard located on the high terrace of the clay-gravelly terroir of this famous appellation on the right bank of the Bordeaux region.

The vintage

The year 2017 will be remembered for the frost episodes that severely hit the Bordeaux vineyards. However, the terroirs located on the Pomerol plateau were fortunately spared. Known as a "winemaker" vintage, Château Gazin 2017 highlights the technical skills of the property's technical teams, who paid constant attention to the vine throughout the vegetative cycle. The harvests, carried out early, began on September 5 with the Merlots and ended on October 2 with the Cabernet Sauvignon, respecting successive sorting to pick the berries at full maturity.
