“ ... a monumental Le Gay, perhaps one of the finest ever produced at the estate ... an utterly seductive bouquet that remains very youthful with ripe dark cherries and boysenberry jam that explode from the glass. There is a floral note to this perfumed nose that gains intensity with aeration. The palate is very intense, quite backward and structured, supporting layers of pure ripe black and red succulent fruit that will need several years to soften. It is the sheer dimension of this wine that is so captivating. Stunning. Have you got your bottle yet?”
“Tiny yields of 25 hectoliters per hectare and a final blend of 90% Merlot and 10% Cabernet Franc have produced an enormously concentrated, black/purple-colored wine exhibiting notes of roasted meats, smoked game, blackberries, coffee, incense and forest floor. This distinctive, large-scaled, viscous, thick Pomerol may be as concentrated as some of this estate’s all-time classics (1947 and 1950) ... one of the most profound Le Gay’s ever produced. Forget it for at least a decade and drink it over the following half century.”
