Established in the 17th century, Château Gazin Rocquencourt is one of the oldest wine estates in Léognan. Its elegant mansion built in 1660 and superb gravelly hilltop terroir have been noted since 1874 for producing high-quality red and white wines. With a rich history and dedication to excellence, it is truly a jewel of Pessac-Léognan.
An exceptional marriage between soil and the vine, the expression of prize winning grape selections such as the 55% Cabernet-Sauvignon and 45% Merlot. The former develops wonderfully in the gravelly soils, expressing its powerful and complex personality, enrobing a dark cloak around red wines, a powerful structure with firm tannins, giving them an incomparable aptitude during ageing. The latter, the Merlot, offsets, in its combinations, the inclemency of the Cabernet Sauvignon thanks to its directness and its developed fruity flavor, thus bringing a degree of suppleness.
