Enchanteur Vray Croix de Gay Pomerol

An organic and stylish Pomerol, from a small quality focused estate

A mouth filling wine with a distinctly opulent feel. Ripe Blackcurrant and black cherry aromas followed by perfumed violets, followed by a soft and velvety palate which has hints of dark chocolate and truffle-earthy richness. The tannins are nicely polished giving it all a silkiness which is very satisfying. It's aged in French oak for around 15 months which adds a few additional spicy notes adding an additional layer of complexity.  Designed to be drunk early!

Château Vray Croix de Gay while only having just over 3.5 hectares of vines boasts an enviable location on the Pomerol plateau. Their vines average over 50 years of age and the mix is 80% Merlot and 20% Cabernet Franc and since 2015 they've been in conversion to organic viticulture.

The winemaking is overseen by renowned winemaker Michel Rolland, known for his expertise in crafting rich and expressive wines. The wines are typically characterised by their elegance, complexity, and ageing potential.

While Château Vray Croix de Gay is not classified as a Grand Cru Classé in the Bordeaux wine classification system, it is considered one of the top estates in Pomerol.
