Château Canon-la-Gaffelière

Château Canon-la-Gaffelière
Château Canon-la-Gaffelière, owned by Stephan von Neipperg, is located at the foot of the hillside at the gateway to the medieval town of Saint-Emilion. The vineyard is located on the southern slopes. Château Canon-la-Gaffelière produces an AOC Saint-Emilion Premier Grand Cru classé.

The Château Canon-la-Gaffelière vineyard covers an area of 19.5 hectares in the heart of the Saint-Emilion vineyards. The clayey-limestone and sandy-clay soils make up a complex yet exceptional terroir. On the surface, the predominance of sand becomes more pronounced the farther you go from the foot of the hill.

Remarkably well-structured, elegant and long on the palate, Château Canon-la-Gaffelière AOC Saint-Emilion Grand Cru is an eloquent testimony to a new production philosophy.

"An energetic, airy, racy and very accomplished 2021. Bravo!"

"Canon-La-Gaffelière 2021 is magnificent, but it's still very closed today. I see this as a positive for its long-term prospects, but readers will have to be patient. This 2021 is super classic, bursting with floral and mineral accents. Its energy and breeding are truly remarkable. I can't wait to taste it after I've let it age in bottle. Bright saline notes prolong the long, beautifully persistent finish. This wine is really full of energy.

"It shows extraordinary purity, energy and dynamism ~ Wine Enthusiast"

"Canon-La-Gaffelière 2016 is just as striking in bottle as it was in barrel. Brilliant, intensely aromatic and precise, the 2016 has it all. Sweet red cherry, pomegranate, blood orange and rose petal run through this silky, super-expressive Saint-Émilion. In 2016, Canon-La-Gaffelière is particularly polished, refined and nuanced, which also means less powerful than in the past. It was convincing both times I tasted it in bottle." (Vinous - 2018) - Delivery in wooden case possible for orders of 6 bottles of this wine (depending on country and shipping method selected)

"Composed of equal parts Cabernet Franc and Merlot, this is a wine of great breadth, complexity and racy volume. Superlatively fine, it is intense and well-constructed, taut but with remarkable fatness". (Le Grand Guide des Vins de France 2012 - Bettane & Desseauve)
