Gazin (Pomerol) Vintage:2018 aged all in foudreThe 2010 Gazin has a delightful bouquet with more red than black fruit (raspberry, cranberry and a touch of red cherry) a joyful and perhaps less serious nose, but one with detail and class.

Harmonious and extremely long, this is a brilliant Pomerol from Nicolas de Bailliencourt and it will age with supreme class. Outstanding. Tasted at
