Croix De Gay Pomerol, 1990

Croix de Gay Pomerol 1990 is a beautifully mature Bordeaux from one of Pomerol’s respected estates, offering the depth and elegance that have made the appellation so sought after. With more than three decades of bottle age, it represents a rare opportunity to enjoy a classic vintage from a historic Right Bank terroir.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, expect a deep garnet core with brick-red edges that reflect its age. The nose is typically layered and refined, with aromas of dried plum, black cherry, forest floor, cedar, truffle, tobacco, and subtle spice. On the palate, the wine is likely to be supple and fully evolved, with softened tannins, harmonious acidity, and a savory finish that lingers with earthy and mineral nuances. At this stage, it is drinking at maturity, though well-stored bottles may still offer a graceful window of enjoyment.

Production
Produced in Pomerol, Bordeaux, where the gravelly and clay-rich soils help create wines of concentration, perfume, and texture. While specific vineyard and vinification details for this bottle are not provided, wines from this estate and vintage would traditionally be harvested by hand and vinified with a focus on preserving ripe fruit, structure, and the distinctive character of the terroir.

Food & Serving
This mature Pomerol pairs wonderfully with roasted lamb, duck breast, beef tenderloin, game, mushroom dishes, and aged cheeses. Serve at around 16–18°C, and consider decanting gently for 30–60 minutes if the bottle is in good condition, mainly to separate any sediment and allow the aromas to open.

Producer
Croix de Gay is a well-regarded Pomerol property with a long-standing presence in one of Bordeaux’s most prestigious Right Bank communes. The estate is associated with the small-scale, terroir-driven style that has made Pomerol famous, and vintages such as 1990 highlight the region’s ability to produce wines with both richness and longevity.
