The 2021 Canon La Gaffeliere is striking. Aromatic and expressive with no hard edges the 2021 impresses with its balance and overall harmony. All the elements are so nicely integrated. Crush red berry fruit white flowers mint rose petal an orange zest all race through this super appealing midweight St Emilion. The 2021 is so well put together. It is such a sensual wine. Rating: 94-96 Points; Antonio Galloni - Vinous

Lovely, perfumed character with cherries, spices and flowers. Medium-bodied, firm and polished with solid tannins and a fresh finish. Pure. Light coffee and walnut. Well crafted. Date: May 2022; Rating: 94-95 Points; James Suckling

The 2021 Canon la Gaffelière 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's the highlight of the von Neipperg portfolio this year. Cabernet Franc, as usual, takes the lead. Date: Apr 2022; Rating: 93-95 Points; William Kelley; Robert Parker's The Wine Advocate
