2008 Ch. La Fleur Gazin, Pomerol

Ch. La Fleur Gazin, Pomerol
Christian Moueix is proud of his wines in 2008 and rightly so. It was a tricky vintage for the Right Bank just as in the Left but, like others who made the right picking decisions, patience has been rewarded. Christian’s 2008 Ch. Lafleur-Gazin is just bursting with the surprisingly ripe fruit of the vintage. Red cherries and crunchy raspberries combine with a healthy hint of dark fruit and extremely fine tannins to make this a really attractive Pomerol – not as dense as some but very rewarding indeed.Château La Fleur Gazin

Ch. La Fleur Gazin, Pomerol
A chunky, low-keyed Pomerol, this 2008 possesses lots of fruit and body, but it lacks personality and complexity. There is no compelling reason to buy and drink it. It should last for 5-7 years.
(Robert Parker- Wine Advocate- May 2011)

A deep ruby color is followed by notes of licorice, damp earth, forest floor, and red as well as black fruits. Medium to full-bodied with excellent purity, sweet tannin, and a plump, fleshy mouthfeel, the excellent 2008 Lafleur-Gazin should drink well for 10-12 years.
(Robert Parker- Wine Advocate- April 2009)
