Château Le Gay, situated in the prestigious Pomerol appellation of Bordeaux, is a winery steeped in history and tradition. Dating back to the 19th century, this estate has been producing exceptional wines that capture the essence of its terroir and the passion of its winemakers.
The vineyards of Château Le Gay span over 10 hectares, with the majority of the vines being over 40 years old. This allows for low yields and highly concentrated grapes, resulting in wines of great depth and complexity. The vineyards are planted with predominantly Merlot, with a small amount of Cabernet Franc, which adds structure and finesse to the wines.
The winemaking process at Château Le Gay is a delicate balance of modern techniques and traditional methods. The grapes are hand-harvested and carefully sorted before undergoing temperature-controlled fermentation. The wines are then aged in French oak barrels, with a proportion of new oak, adding layers of complexity and enhancing the wine's ageing potential.
The resulting wines of Château Le Gay are rich, elegant and full-bodied, with a distinctive Pomerol character of dark fruits, spice, and subtle earthy notes. These wines are a true reflection of the estate's commitment to quality and its ability to capture the essence of its unique terroir.
