With viticultural history dating back to the 17th century, Château Canon-la-Gaffelière is a prestigious wine estate situated in the Saint-Émilion appellation. Owned by Count Stephan von Neipperg since 1985, the property was upgraded in the official 2012 Saint-Émilion Classification to Premier Grand Cru Classé B. This is the 2010 vintage, in a half bottle, a blend of 50% Merlot, 40% Cabernet Franc and 10% Cabernet Sauvignon. A full-bodied and opulent wine, with a solid focus on its core of ripe fruit, complemented by notes of liquorice and herbs.
The 2010 Canon-la-Gaffelière has quite a compact nose, backward and rather surly compared to its peers. It feels a little Left Bank in style with light pencil shaving aromas developing. The palate is medium-bodied with crisp tannins, a fine bead of acidity, nicely structured with a grippy, quite spicy and forthright finish that feels reassuringly persistent. Very promising, but it needs another couple of years in bottle. Tasted blind at Farr Vintners 10-Year On Bordeaux horizontal.
