Critic Scores, Reviews & Descriptions
93 DE / 91-92 JS / 88-90 VM
Gently smoked coffee beans accompany the first nose, infusing the creamy damson and black cherry fruit. Packed full of plush and velvety Pomerol tannins, muscled and confident overall. You are not going to mistake where you are with this wine, great appellation signature and overall a highly successful Croix de Gay, from the Raynaud-Lebreton family. A yield of 39hl/ha. Axel Marchal consultant for first time as of 2019 vintage. Drinking Window 2025 - 2042 - Jane Anson, Decanter
A polished, easy 2019 with plum, chocolate and toasted-oak character. Medium body, medium tannins and a fresh finish. Lighter than the 2018. - James Suckling
The 2019 La Croix de Gay is powerful and a bit rough around the edges, but quite pleasant just the same. Dried flowers, herbs, menthol, licorice, scorched earth and blue fruits all open up in this mid-weight yet hearty Pomerol. The 2019 is not especially refined, but it has plenty of character. - Antonio Galloni, Vinous Media
