Château Le Gay is one of the finest estates in Pomerol, producing superb Merlot-based wines. The property is owned by the group Vignobles Péré Vergé, whose portfolio also includes the châteaux La Violette, Montviel and La Gravière. This release is the grand vin from the 2000 vintage, made from vines that are at least 50 years old. A beautifully aged Pomerol, packed with notes of violets, sweet plums, smoked wood and an underlying stream of earthiness.

The 2000 Le Gay is missing the vigor and cohesion of the 2001, offering rather flat red berry fruit, scorched earth and leathery notes. The palate is rounded on the entry with a plush mouthfeel, though the fruit seems very degraded and matured, and some dryness creeps in toward the finish. I feel that this Le Gay has not aged well – and certainly not compared directly with the following vintage. I will leave a question mark against my score and endeavor to taste another bottle.Neal Martin1st September 2021
