TASTING NOTES
Unwinding in the glass with aromas of dark berries, licorice, cherries and spices, the 2022 Gazin is medium to full-bodied, ample and fleshy, with excellent depth at the core, sweet tannins and a long, expansive finish. Despite the drought, the vineyards performed better in 2022 than in 2020 at this address, and the result is one of the better vintages for Gazin in recent years.

A very juicy and nicely chewy young red with black berry, chocolate and cedar aromas and flavors. Medium-bodied with integrated tannins and a fresh and persistent finish.
95/96
James Suckling, JamesSuckling.com, April 2023
Deep garnet-purple in color, the 2022 Gazin bursts with energetic note of wild blueberries, black raspberries, and plum preserves, leading to nuances of violets and star anise. The full-bodied palate has impressive harmony, with velvety tannins and just enough freshness to match the generous fruit, finishing long and fragrant.
