Canon La Gaffeliere 2009

HED81275 75cl 14%
With a viticultural history dating back to the 17th century, Château Canon-la-Gaffelière is a prestigious wine estate situated in the Saint-Émilion appellation. Produced from a blend of Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon, the 2009 offers up a fresh nose with ripe blackberry fruit and plum preserves together with liquorice and espresso character.
The 2009 Canon-la-Gaffelière is a little loose-knit on the nose, perhaps showing a little brettanomyces, rather animally in style. The palate is medium-bodied with gently gripping tannin, quite solid with good density, the second half more introspective than the first with black fruit, cedar, graphite and tobacco notes. This is a serious Right Bank 2009 and, though it showed more promise three years ago, it should age well over the next decade. Tasted blind at Farr Vintners’ 2009 Bordeaux tasting. - Neil Martin
