Château Vray Croix de Gay 2007
The wine
Just like its neighbour Petrus, Vray Croix de Gay favours the use of Merlot (around 90%), complemented by Cabernet Franc. In the mouth, the wine has the supple delicacy which has earned Pomerol its worldwide reputation. A great wine for drinking after 8-20 years' keeping.
About the Producer Château Vray Croix de Gay
Château Vray Croix de Gay is a small 3.67-hectare domaine spread over 3 plots in the heart of Pomerol. The largest plot is between Petrus and Lafleur, which tells you all you need to know about this terroir. François Pinault has been an investor in this château since 2013. Jean-Claude Berrouet – a former winemaker at Petrus – acts as an advisor to the château. This is an estate to watch carefully in future.
