Chateau Notes
Château La Croix de Gay, located in the Pomerol appellation of Bordeaux, France, is celebrated for producing rich and intensely flavoured wines. This family-owned property, situated in the heart of Pomerol, benefits from the appellation’s legendary terroir, characterized by its iron-rich clay and gravel soils. The estate is relatively small, focusing on a high-density planting of predominantly Merlot, complemented by a smaller proportion of Cabernet Franc. This careful selection of varietals is ideally suited to the local conditions, allowing Château La Croix de Gay to produce powerful and elegant wines. The vineyard management practices are meticulous, with a strong emphasis on sustainable agriculture to ensure the health and longevity of the vines. Winemaking at Château La Croix de Gay combines traditional methods with modern techniques to enhance the expression of the terroir in each bottle. The wines are known for their deep ruby colour and complex aromas of ripe red and black fruits, accented by hints of spice and earthy notes. The palate is rich and full-bodied, with a silky texture and a persistent finish, hallmarks of the Pomerol style. Château La Croix de Gay’s wines are appreciated for their approachability in youth yet possess enough structure and balance to age gracefully. This makes them a favourite among collectors and those new to Bordeaux wines, offering a delightful introduction to the unique qualities of Pomerol.
