Description

Chateau Canon La Gaffeliere is a property in Saint-Emilion, producing a wine that is known for its elegance and finesse. In 2012, it was promoted to Premier Grand Cru Classe status. Canon La Gaffeliere began as two separate estates, Canon Boitard and La Gaffeliere Boitard, in the 19th Century. They were eventually combined, and bought by the Von Neipperg family in 1971. Current proprietor Count Stephan von Neipperg also owns La Mondotte, Clos de L'Oratoire and Chateau Peyreau in Saint-Emilion, plus a handful of other estates around Bordeaux.

The Winery

Pretty milk chocolate, earth, mushroom and berry on the nose. Medium- to full-bodied, with good fruit, fine tannins and a fresh finish. Slightly hollow midpalate. Drinkable now, but will develop complexity with bottle age. -WS
