Heiner Lobenberg über:
Chateau Le Gay 2021

95–96
/100

Lobenberg: Pomerol 2021 vom Allerfeinsten mit Druck und Wucht und satter Frucht. Unglaublich tief und würzig und komplex. Ein Kultwein der Opulenz und Finesse in einem klassischeren Jahr, was für Pomerol immer etwas schlankere und feinere Weine bedeutet....ein kühleres Jahr mit mehr Regen ist hier eigentlich win win - und wenn dann der Preis richtig runtergeht ist das eben ein Musskauf. Nur schick und lecker und erotisch!

Suckling über: Chateau Le Gay

-- Suckling: An excellent wine for the vintage, showing great complexity and some depth. Fine spices, cocoa powder, fresh herbs, white pepper, blueberries and plums. Refined and juicy on the medium- to full-bodied palate imbued with silky, polished tannins and a refined, lengthy finish. Shows class. Drinkable now, but better in 2025 and onwards.

Galloni über: Chateau Le Gay

-- Galloni: The 2021 Le Gay is a powerful, tightly wound wine, its mid-weight structure notwithstanding. It will be interesting to see where this goes. The 2021 certainly has enough depth to drink well for many years. Dark plum, spice, leather, mocha and well-judged oak inform a wine that is all about balance and proportion.

Neal Martin über: Chateau Le Gay

-- Neal Martin: The 2021 Le Gay is far superior on the nose compared to the Deuxième Vin, much more blackberry and raspberry fruit, hints of iris flower and sage, though obviously less precocious than the last three vintages. The palate is medium-bodied with grippy tannins, saline on the front palate with fine delineation towards the composed finish. This is a well-executed Le Gay that just lacks a bit of substance.

Wine Cellar Insider über: Chateau Le Gay

-- Wine Cellar Insider: Licorice, espresso, spice, vanilla, plums and red pit fruits crowd into the nose. On the palate, the wine is medium/full-bodied, round, lifted, sweet and polished with ample dark red, ripe, sweet, vibrant fruits in the finish. Drink from 2024-2045.
