N°60 TOP 100 JS FRANCE
Extremely perfumed with enticing cabernet franc aromas of black cherries and lavender. Some sandalwood. Medium-bodied with very fine tannins that are polished and beautiful, this wine has lovely length and freshness. 45% cabernet franc, 35% merlot and 20% cabernet sauvignon. Enjoyable now, but better in two or three years.

One of the gems out there, the 2021 Château Canon-La-Gaffelière is well worth seeking out. Giving up ample blue fruits, medium to full-bodied richness, ripe tannins, and complex, pure aromatics of violets, iron, and tobacco, it shines for its balance and elegance while bring terrific depth of fruit. Count me impressed.

The 2021 Canon-La-Gaffelière is gorgeous, but it is also very closed today. I view that as a positive for its long-term prospects, but readers need to be patient here. The 2021 is a super-classic Canon-La-Gaffelière redolent of strong floral and mineral accents. Its energy and sheer breeding are truly remarkable. I can't wait to taste it with bottle age. Bright saline notes extend the long, beautifully persistent finish. The 2021 was aged 40% in new oak, 20% in tank and the remainder in used oak and 400-liter barrels. This really pulses with energy.

Shows gently mulled plum and blackberry fruit flavors that have good flesh and energy, while savory and sous-bois accents peek in throughout. Maintains enough juiciness through the finish too, letting the fruit play out in an unencumbered manner. Cabernet Franc, Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon. Drink now through 2035. 4,000 cases made. –JM

There is a balance between the piercingly fresh perfume with violets and fresh tobacco tones and the severely tense, mineral-drenched finish. In between, there is a silky luge of plum fruit that races across the palate. I do not doubt that this mid-palate will build and build, and, as I taste and swirl, I can unlock tightly bound fruit notes that will relax over time and add flesh and silkiness to the whole. Beautiful and restrained, this is a hidden gem in 2021 and a wine that demands time, and this sets it apart from the hordes of more forward candidates. 18+

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.

Racé, long et profond, avec de la vigueur et une belle énergie. Pour son premier millésime, Ludovic Von Neipperg a su attendre pour vendanger des raisins mûrs. Une différence notable avec d’autres crus, apportant une persistance aromatique quasi-aérienne au cœur de bouche et la finale. Coup de cœur. 45 % cabernet franc, 35 % merlot, 20 % cabernet-sauvignon.

Medium-deep crimson. Intense dark cherry, blackberry aromas with vanilla hint toasty notes. Well balanced wine with generous dark cherry, blackberry fruits, fine loose-knit chocolaty tannins and plentiful vanilla roasted chestnut notes. Very good density, richness and vigour. 35% merlot, 45% cabernet franc, 20% cabernet sauvignon. 16 months maturation in new and seasoned oak. 13% alc

Canon La Gaffelière 2021 wins me with its unmistakable fruity aromas, clean body, and elegant palate. 45% Cabernet Franc and 20% Cabernet Sauvignon make the body rich and complex in contents and layers. It attacks the mouth with flavors of fresh red fruits, like raspberry and red mulberry, and a hint of blood orange, which is rare in the vintage of 2021. Although it misses some impressive flavors on the finish, it still keeps its charm from head to toes.

On the nose you find cigar wrapper, spearmint, flowers, leafy herbs, red fruits and spices. Fresh, crisp, elegant, bright, chewy and chalky on the palate, this is what modern classic Bordeaux is all about. The wine finishes with sweet, red fruits before moving to the intense minerality and spicy notes in the backend. Blending 45% Cabernet Franc, 35% Merlot and 20% Cabernet Sauvignon, 13% ABV. The blend represents the highest portion of Cabernet in the blend. Yields were only 30 hectoliters per hectare due to frost and mildew. The harvest took place, September 28 - October 14. Drink from 2025-2048. 93-95

The 2021 Canon La Gaffelière was picked September 28 to October 14 at 30hL/ha and contains a little more Cabernet Franc this year (45%). It has an elegant, pure bouquet, unfurling to offer dark cherries, incense and violet aromas; the new oak (40%) is well integrated. The refined, understated palate is quite mineral-driven, featuring black truffle and ground black pepper and turning spicy toward the finish. Displaying fine complexity, this Canon-la-Gaffelière should give 15–20 years of drinking pleasure.

The 2021 Canon La Gaffelière 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. Crushed red berry fruit, white flowers, mint, rose petal and orange zest all race through this super-appealing, mid-weight Saint-Émilion. The 2021 is so well put together. It's is such a sensual wine.

Was für eine Nase, florale Noten, reife Kirschen, Pflaumen, Früchtetee, verspielt und dennoch mit Tiefgang. Im Gaumen frisch, lebendig, keinerlei Schwere, das tänzelt förmlich, hat Rasse und Präzision, von allem genug, von nichts zu viel. Sehr langer, würziger und mineralischer Abgang. Ein Erfolg. 2025-2045 (Verkostet im April 2022. UGCB)

Assemblages non réalisés. Très frais avec de superbes notes de mure, de cassis, de violette, de fleurs de printemps et une belle trame mentholée, le bouquet de Canon-La-Gaffelière est somptueux. En bouche, de beaux tanins veloutés, une trame droite et sur l'allonge, une belle présence de cabernets parfaitement murs et maitrisés. Aérien et élégant. Bravo !

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.
