Antonio Galloni

"The 2005 La Fleur de Gay has a well-defined, attractive bouquet with truffle-tinged black fruit and raspberry coulis aromas. The palate is medium-bodied with grainy tannins, crisp acidity and a splash of soy on the structured, tarry finish. I cannot see this improving but it has plenty of charm. Tasted blind at the 2005 Bordeaux tasting at Farr Vintners." —Neal Martin

Robert Parker

"This 100% Merlot cuvée (which, during this era, came from the choicest parcels of La Croix de Gay) is a rich, concentrated, extracted Pomerol with a dense ruby/purple color, sweet mocha, black cherry and blackcurrant fruit, some licorice and truffle. It is medium to full-bodied, still quite young, but very approachable. Drink it over the next 20 years." —Robert M. Parker, Jr.

"Interesting, savoury nose. Then very fluid, fresh, super-fruity palate. Some inkiness. A pretty wine that is less sweet that most Pomerols. Good focus and energy."

Wine Spectator

93 points

"Dark purple in color, with aromas of coffee, green olive, blackberry and dried flowers. Full-bodied, with very polished yet present tannins and a long, rich, fruity finish. The best Le Gay in years."

Wine Enthusiast

92 points

"This should be a powerful wine, but the power is so tempered by light acidity, poise, even delicacy in the tannins, that at the end the freshness is the principal element." —Roger Voss
