Die Bordeaux Subskription 2019 - Primeurs 2019
Lisa Perrotti Brown bewertet den Chateau Canon La Gaffeliere 2019 Saint Emilion im Juni 2020:Medium to deep garnet-purple in color. the 2019 Canon la Gaffeliere opens with an incredibly evocative perfume of lilacs. Morello cherries. black raspberries. jasmine and Sichuan pepper over a core of ripe black plums. wild blueberries and dark chocolate with touches of iron ore and cumin seed. The medium to full-bodied palate reveals an edifying intensity of electric blue and black fruit layers. supported by a rock-solid frame of firm. finely grained tannins and bold freshness. finishing long with a firework display of fruit. mineral and spicy nuances. A thrilling wine from the get-go and one that should age very well!
James Suckling bewertet den Chateau Canon La Gaffeliere 2019 Saint Emilion im Juni 2020: Blackberry. chocolate and hazelnut aromas and flavors. It’s medium-to full-bodied with polished. juicy tannins that give a dusty texture to the intense. rich finish. A traditional. classically structured and styled red.
Neal Martin bewertet den Chateau Canon La Gaffeliere 2019 Saint Emilion im Juni 2020:The 2019 Canon La Gaffelière was picked from 19 September to 7 October at 51hl/ha and sees 60% new oak. It has a very focused bouquet. tight at first and benefitting from an hour's aeration. Eventually it reveals glorious red berry scents mixed with cedar. loamy soil and a pinch of cracked black pepper. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins. a fine bead of acidity. taut and fresh with a return of that black pepper note right on the finish. Excellent.
Antonio Galloni bewertet den Chateau Canon La Gaffeliere 2019 Saint Emilion im Juni 2020:The 2019 Canon La Gaffelière is a nervous. tightly wound wine. Then again. we are talking about a Cabernet Franc-driven Saint-Émilion. Sweet red berries. mint. blood orange and spice pulse with tremendous energy. Aromatically expressive and deep. Canon La Gaffelière builds effortlessly over time. leading to a bright. saline and mineral-drenched finish that is a thing of beauty. The 2019 shows much better from a full bottle (as opposed to a half). with silky tannins that emerge with a touch of aeration. I won't be surprised if the 2019 is even better from bottle than this note suggests.
