Critic Scores, Reviews & Descriptions

93-94 JS / 92 JA / 90-92 WI / 90-92 JD / 90 DE / 87-90 VM

Wide and structured red with a medium to full body and fine-grained, silky tannins. Lingering and deep dark-fruited finish. - James Suckling

Love the poise of this wine, rich inky colour, plenty of grilled spice and floral character on the nose, opens to cassis and raspberry fruits, tempered by orange peel and pomegrante. The drama of the vintage is here too, with fennel, aniseed and rosemary coming in waves on the finish drama spice notes, along with a flash of heat. - Jane Anson, Inside Bordeaux

The 2022 La Croix de Gay is deep garnet-purple in color. A little shut-down to begin, with coaxing the nose opens to reveal scents of stewed black and red cherries, prunes, and mocha, followed by wafts of charcoal and damp soil. The full-bodied palate is dense and spicy, with soft tannins and well-judged acidity, finishing on a savory note. - Lisa Perrotti-Brown, Wine Independent

Ample red and black fruits, spice, sappy herbs, and some leathery nuances emerge from the 2022 Château La Croix De Gay, a complex, medium to full-bodied, fruit-forward Pomerol that stays nicely balanced. This fruit-loaded beauty is going to drink nicely right out of the gate. - Jeb Dunnuck

Fresh and lively, but quite tart and a little stalky too, nice acidity keeps the freshness, but the flavours are quite intensely spiced and herbal with strawberry, raspberry, liquorice, clove and dark chocolate giving a bitterness all the way through which doesn't quite match the sharp tangy fruit at this point. Tannins are well integrated, but so well that the sharpness stands out a little. A yield of 25hl/ha. - Georgina Hindle, Decanter

The 2022 La Croix de Gay is powerful and also a bit burly in its contours yet shows terrific depth. Dark red fruit, spice, leather, tobacco, incense and dried herbs lend a bit of complexity. The 2022 could be quite good, especially if some of the more angular contours soften. - Antonio Galloni, Vinous Media
