Medium to full-bodied, layered and concentrated, it's deep and powerful, with ample reserves of powdery tannin that will require a bit of patience in bottle.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003eDirected by Christophe de Baillencourt and overseen by Mickael Obert, this 24-hectare family-owned estate is producing its best wines in the modern era. The vineyards themselves straddle two essential soil types: gravels opposite the château and deep clays on the plateau (where the estate is a neighbor of Pétrus, to which it ceded a prime bloc in the 1960s). Herbicides have never been used here, and cover crops are the order of the day since 2018. Planted with 85% Merlot, replanting is gradually introducing a touch more Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon (the latter first included in the blend with the outstanding 2019 vintage). New oak is much better integrated than was the case a decade ago, and Gazin has gained in depth and energy.\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Wine Clique","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55944066203816,"sku":"BOR00090778","price":147.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0525\/3316\/6248\/files\/BC_Upload_851679ed-7bee-4916-aec9-48808151728e.png?v=1788416418","url":"https:\/\/www.wine-clique.com\/products\/gazin-2020","provider":"Wine Clique","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
