Critic reviews
"Aromas of minty berries and toasty oak introduce the 2024 Gazin, a medium-bodied, fleshy and layered wine that concludes with a touch of chewy structure."
William Kelley, April 2025, RobertParker.com
"The 2024 Gazin has a light, tertiary bouquet with blackberry and raspberry fruit. This needs a little more vigor but it is nicely defined. The palate is medium-bodied with slightly chewy tannins, a healthy dash of white pepper and a structured, grippier finish than its peers. I appreciate the freshness in this Pomerol and it should show well once in bottle, but this needs more substance. A couple of samples show some dryness on the finish."
Neal Martin, April 2025, Vinous.com
"The 2024 Gazin is classy and elegant, even if it is a bit strict at this stage. Rose petal, mint, blood orange and cinnamon meld into a core of red-toned fruit. There's gorgeous textural depth and resonance here. Clean saline notes extend the finish. All this needs is a bit of polish and pliancy in the mid-palate, but élevage should take care of that. Gazin is distinguished in 2024 by its unusually high presence of Cabernet Sauvignon (10%), along with 90% Merlot and no Cabernet Franc in this vintage. Harvest started on September 20. Tasted three times."

"A classic Pomerol with chocolate, hazelnuts and dark fruit. Medium-bodied with juicy fruit. Creamy texture at the end."
James Suckling, May 2025, JamesSuckling.com
"Often a more serious, closed style of Pomerol during the En Primeur tastings, and this starts with subdued aromatics. Give it time in the glass and I suggest waiting a good few years before drinking, as there are firm tannins here, and black fruits with liqourice root spice. This may take a few years to reveal its Pomerol joy, but there is plenty of have confidence in. 23.4 hl/ha, Nicolas and Elise de Bailliencourt now at the estate, the next generation of the family. Tasted twice."
