Winemaker Notes
The 2019 Canon La Gaffeliere is described as a medium to full-bodied wine with notes of red and black currants, tobacco, exotic flowers, cedarwood, and loamy earth. The palate features a medium to full-bodied richness, with beautifully polished, integrated tannins and a long finish. It also exhibits aromas of black raspberries, Morello cherries, jasmine, and Sichuan pepper, along with notes of ripe black plums, wild blueberries, and dark chocolate.
About Winery
Located on the famous slope (and the foot of the slope) south of the medieval village of Saint-Emilion, Chateau Canon La Gaffelière has belonged to the Counts von Neipperg since 1971. Representing some eight centuries of family winegrowing tradition, Count Stephan von Neipperg has succeeded in placing Chateau Canon La Gaffelière among the top Grands Crus Classés of Saint-Emilion thanks to a winegrowing philosophy that gives priority not only to quality, but also respect for the environment.
