ready-keep2003 Château Le Gay, Pomerol, Bordeaux

Recently acquired by Sylvie and Jacques Guinaudeau, owners of one of Pomerols legendary estates, Ch. Lafleur, this property has undergone a major overhaul in recent years and  results are now beginning to show through.This well-sited property has benefited from the ubiquitous but highly talented Michel Rolland's advice, plus a very smart new chai; it is one to watch for the future. The present is pretty impressive too with the majestic feel of this wine belying its humble location. This is another exception that proves the rule in Pomerol, displaying a silky, sensual texture that smooths over a reassuringly gravely mineral structure.
