2014 Chateau Gazin Pomerol Bordeaux France

Greatness in Pomerol is often measured in meters, not miles. Château Gazin stands beside Pétrus on the revered Pomerol plateau, occupying one of the appellation’s most privileged positions. Its vineyard stretches across a rare, single contiguous parcel on the high terrace, a setting long associated with Pomerol’s most profound expressions of Merlot.

Beneath the vines lies a complex mosaic of blue and green clays layered with gravel and iron-rich deposits, a terroir synonymous with Pomerol’s most age-worthy wines. These soils provide both structure and natural balance, regulating water supply and sustaining the vines through variable seasons. In 2014, this advantage proved decisive, allowing the fruit to ripen with freshness, clarity, and poise.

Now with a decade in bottle, the 2014 Château Gazin is entering a particularly expressive phase. The wine shows depth without heaviness, its structure softened into a supple, seamless frame while retaining the freshness that defines great Pomerol. It is generous yet composed, offering immediate pleasure alongside the promise of continued evolution.

“The soy-sauce and savory aromas really make this stand out, but behind it are some very nice fruit and elegant tannins. This is a very well-made modern Pomerol with a lot of potential that needs some time to reveal its full class. Give it five or six years of bottle age.”

2020 2nd Pes Saint-Estephe Bordeaux France

Saint-Estèphe’s oldest domaine tells its story with quiet confidence. Born in the 15th century and refined under the Pontac family, the lineage behind Haut-Brion, Château de Pez has learned to prize detail over spectacle. Now under the steady hand of Champagne Louis Roederer, that discipline shows in the glass as precision, clean lines, and an ease that comes only from patient, thoughtful work.

2nd Pez channels the vitality of the estate’s younger vines, farmed with High Environmental Value certification and a pocket of parcels tended biodynamically. You feel that care in the wine’s lift and purity. Twelve months in a balanced regimen of oak barrels and stainless steel lets the wine speak for itself. Nothing is masked, everything is tuned. 

Coming from Bordeaux’s outstanding 2020 vintage, Cabernet Sauvignon leads with quiet power as Merlot fills the mid-palate with supple texture. Together they deliver a second wine that performs like a first. It is unmistakably Saint-Estèphe for its structure and mineral nerve, yet immediately inviting for its clarity and poise.

Collection 1933 2019 Pauillac arrests the senses with its extraordinary power, captivating complexity, and precise character. Each sip reflects its origins in Pauillac, one of Bordeaux’s most revered regions. This illustrious terroir is home to three of the five First Growths from the historic 1855 Classification: Château Lafite Rothschild, Château Latour, and Château Mouton Rothschild. For centuries, these estates have set the standard for Bordeaux, producing wines that define the essence of terroir-driven finesse.

Collection 1933 offers a unique and compelling perspective on Pauillac. Its story is not one of grandeur but of collaboration. In 1933, during the depths of the Great Depression, local growers in Pauillac united to form the first cooperative in Aquitaine. Their visionary goal was to create a platform for smaller growers to showcase their terroir, allowing their wines to express the soul of Pauillac. The SCV Collection 1933 Grand Vin de Pauillac honors this spirit, a contemporary homage to those pioneers who dared to dream.

This stunning 96-point Bordeaux unfolds layer by layer, revealing rich blackberry, dark chocolate, and finely structured tannins, culminating in a long, harmonious finish. This vintage is a heartfelt tribute to Pauillac’s resilience and the enduring power of its legendary terroir.

2020 Galius Saint-Emilion Grand Cru Bordeaux France

In the heart of Saint-Émilion lies Château Galius, named for a legendary Roman soldier who left the battlefield to cultivate the land he received as a war bounty. In this region where Gallo-Roman culture first took root, Galius exchanged his weapons for farming tools, helping to sow the earliest vines that would shape Saint-Émilion’s winemaking legacy. 

Château Galius continues this legacy across eleven hectares of sustainably farmed vineyards. Rooted in the famed clay-limestone soils that have birthed some of the world’s most coveted wines, these half-century-old vines thrive, producing exceptional grapes year after year.

The 2020 vintage, a testament to nature’s balance and the winemaker’s artistry, emerged from a challenging year. Early rains nurtured the vines, preparing them for the intense summer heat. This delicate equilibrium resulted in an extraordinary wine.

A masterful blend of Merlot and Cabernet Franc, this wine offers a harmonious interplay of power and elegance. Rich, concentrated fruit flavors unfold on the palate, balanced by a refreshing acidity that leaves a lasting impression. This impressive Saint-Émilion value is a tribute to Galius’s past, with a promise for the future.

2019 Pauillac de Latour Pauillac Bordeaux France

Château Latour, a storied First Growth estate in Bordeaux, has a legacy that stretches back to the mid-14th century. Nestled on a sloping hillside along the Gironde Estuary, the estate benefits from a unique terroir where warm breezes protect the vines from frost. This idyllic setting, combined with centuries of winemaking expertise, has solidified Latour’s position at the pinnacle of Bordeaux’s history.

While many Bordeaux estates produce two wines, Château Latour offers a third: Le Pauillac. Crafted from younger vines that may not quite meet the exacting standards of the Grand Vin, Le Pauillac nevertheless captures the essence of the estate’s character.

Produced with meticulous care, Le Pauillac presents an approachable yet refined expression of the Château Latour legacy. Typically a blend of 45% Merlot with Cabernet Sauvignon and a touch of Petit Verdot, Le Pauillac offers an inviting introduction to the Latour family of wines—providing luxury and heritage without the Grand Vin’s lofty price tag.
