Description
The elegance and depth of a great Pomerol wine
The estate
Tracing its origins back to 1845 under the name Domaine du Gay, Château Le Gay is an iconic estate located on the prestigious Pomerol plateau, in the Bordeaux region. Long shaped by the Robin family motto, “Quality over quantity,” the estate experienced a true renaissance from 2002 under the impetus of Catherine Péré-Vergé. Today, her son Henri Parent heads the property. He continues this pursuit of excellence with a holistic approach, elevating this cru to the status of a rising star of the appellation through wines that combine power and refinement.
The vineyard
The vineyard extends over 11.19 hectares, of which 10.17 are in production, ideally located on the renowned Pomerol plateau. The 20-year-old vines thrive on typical soils composed of clay and gravel.
Vinification and ageing
