Quite possibly the finest vintage of this cuvee I’ve tasted, the 2020 Chateau Canon-La-Gaffeliere offers that rare mix of richness and elegance that makes this vintage so compelling. Classic notes of cassis, ripe black cherries, spring flowers, and truffly earth define the aromatics, and it’s full-bodied and perfectly balanced, with beautiful tannins and a great finish. This is another stunningly good Saint-Emilion that will benefit from 4-6 years of bottle age and have 2-3 decades of overall longevity. Best After 2027

Blend: 55% Merlot, 30% Cabernet Franc ,15% Cabernet Sauvignon.
