James Suckling: 97 Points
The complex aromas of brambleberries and fresh herbs such as lemongrass and Italian basil come through beautifully here, giving a liveliness and focus. Medium-bodied with firm and silky tannins and a racy and refined finish. Tight. Really lovely. More elegant and thoughtful than in the past.
Wine Spectator: 93 Points
Not shy with the toast, this offers a layer of mocha and açaí paste draped over fresher flavors of raspberry and red currant coulis. The fruit shows persistence through the finish, but this seems more about power than range or freshness. Merlot and Cabernet Franc.
Wine Advocate: 93 Points
The 2022 Le Gay offers up aromas of rich cassis, menthol and toasty new oak, followed by a full-bodied, rich and rather muscular palate framed by sweet, liberally extracted tannins that assert themselves on the finish. While this remains quite a chunky, stylized wine, defined by its fermentation in new oak barriques, it is comparatively restrained for this estate in such an extreme vintage.
