Awarded 95 points by critics, this organic-certified vintage opens with captivating aromas of rose petals, lilac, black cherry, raspberry, lavender and warm spice. The medium-bodied palate is fresh, seamless and beautifully precise, with fine-grained tannins, lively acidity and a long, mineral-driven finish. A blend of 45% Cabernet Franc, 35% Merlot and 20% Cabernet Sauvignon, this is a sophisticated Saint-Émilion with excellent freshness and ageing potential through the 2040s.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline; background-color: #ffffff;\"\u003eThe Wine Advocate | \u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(151, 7, 0); text-decoration: underline;\"\u003eRP 93-95\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"background-color: #ffffff;\"\u003e\u003cem\u003ePublished: Apr 29, 2022\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 2021 Canon la Gaffeliere is beautiful, bursting from the glass with aromas of rose petals, lilac, sweet berry fruit, burning embers and warm spices. Medium to full-bodied, seamless and elegant, with a fleshy core of fruit, lively acids and beautifully refined tannins, it'sthe highlight of the von Neipperg portfolio this year.

Impactful on the palate straight away - the fine-grained tannins hit the mouth and expand slowly alongside the liquorice spice and dark berry fruit with violet aromas. It's direct and linear at the moment, taut, and driven in one line. You feel it's coiled up ready to spring with strawberry fruit and the Cabernet aspects coming through. It's delicately textured, the mouthfeel is light and bouncy while the flavours slowly expand vertically. Touches of sweetness, bitterness and minerality appear adding interest from start to finish. I love the clarity you get. Impactful and full of complexity. Will be lovely to taste this in bottle. 5% more Cabernet Franc and 5% Cabernet Sauvignon than usual as some Merlot was lost to frost and mildew. A production of 98% grand vin.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"FR\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline; background-color: #ffffff;\"\u003eJancis Robinson | \u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(151, 7, 0);\"\u003eJR 16\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"FR\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"background-color: #ffffff;\"\u003ePublished: Oct 8, 2024\u003cbr\u003eDrink: 2024-2032\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"FR\"\u003e35% Merlot, 45% Cabernet Franc and 20% Cabernet Sauvignon.
