James Suckling 93-94
A fine and fresh Pomerol with chocolate, hazelnut and dark berry, as well as orange peel. Really lovely and pretty.
The Wine Advocate 91-93
A blend of 90% Merlot and 10% Cabernet Franc, the 2022 Vray Croix de Gay is the first vintage produced from start to finish by Vincent Millet and his team from Calon Ségur. Exhibiting aromas of sweet berries, orange zest, violets and rose petals, it's medium to full-bodied, fleshy and velvety, with lively acids and a saline finish. It's derived from a parcel opposite Le Gay and Trotonoy.
