In the glass, La Gomerie offers a deep, almost dark color and an intense nose dominated by aromas of ripe black fruits (plum, blackberry, sometimes wild blackberry), enriched with notes of cocoa, sweet spices, and toasted wood.

On the palate, the texture is velvety, the body ample but controlled, the tannins rich and elegant, with a beautiful length and a lingering finish, carried by the natural freshness of the terroir.

Typical of Saint-Émilion Grand Cru, this wine seduces with its concentration, its fruity depth, and its ability to mature magnificently in the cellar, while remaining expressive when young.

Château La Gomerie, a little gem of Saint-Émilion, has been owned by the Bécot (Beauséjour-Bécot) family since 1995.
The vineyard represents the former enclosure of the priory of Fayse Abbey, to which the Manoir de la Gomerie was attached.

Covering only 2.52 hectares, this estate is composed entirely of Merlot, planted on vines approximately 35-40 years old.
The terroir is remarkable: sandy soils mixed with iron dross, a clay subsoil, and a limestone plateau with star-shaped leaves from the neighboring Beau-Sejour-Becot.

The estate’s style is based on low yields, meticulous vinification, and prolonged aging—often in new barrels—in the spirit of modern micro-cuvées.
