Medium to deep garnet-purple colored, the 2017 La Croix de Gay gives up notes of asphalt, sautéed herbs and damp soil over a core of baked black plums, fruitcake and dried mulberries. Medium-bodied, the palate has a fair bit of chew with just enough muscular fruit and an herbal lift on the finish.

Chateau La Croix de Gay has a long history in the Pomerol appellation. But the owners of the vineyard, the Raynaud-Lebreton family have an even longer history in Bordeaux dating back to 1477.The official estate dates back to at least the mid-1800s as wine was produced from the vineyard in 1772.The 4.2-hectare vineyard of Chateau La Croix de Gay is planted to 86% Merlot and 14% Cabernet Franc.
