James Suckling über den Chateau La Gaffeliere 2019 Saint Emilion:3 Jan, 2022 – A vibrant, fragrant red with aromas of blackberries, currants, walnuts and mint chocolate. Medium-bodied with fine-grained tannins. Pretty walnut notes on the polished finish. Fantastic length. Driven acidity and focus. Try in 2025.
Antonio Galloni (Vinous) bewertet den Chateau La Gaffeliere 2019 Saint Emilion:The 2019 La Gaffelière is just as impressive as it was en primeur. Bright and tightly wound, La Gaffelière sizzles with energy. Dark red fruit, mocha, blood orange, mint and dried flowers lend striking aromatic presence. There is some youthful austerity here, but nothing time in bottle won't take care of. The 2019 doesn't quite match the stratospheric grandeur of the magical 2018, but it comes close.
Und Neal Martin (Vinous) zum Chateau La Gaffeliere 2019 Saint Emilion:The 2019 La Gaffelière has a wonderful bouquet of mineral-rich black and red fruit and sous-bois, a little tobacco and pencil box emerging with time. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins, fleshy and ripe. Perfectly balanced, leading to an almost Left Bank, graphite-tinged finish courtesy of the 40% Cabernet Franc, the 2019 continues the purple patch of this Saint-Émilion stalwart. No doubt a wine that will give 30 to 40 years of drinking pleasure.
Für den Wine Spectator verköstigte James Molesworth den Chateau La Gaffeliere 2019 Saint Emilion:This rolls out dense fig, boysenberry and red currant paste flavors laced with pronounced chalky minerality and notes of tobacco, dried anise and juniper. The serious tannic drive on the finish puts this in the 'classically austere' camp. Worth cellaring for sure, but patience is required. Merlot and Cabernet Franc. Best from 2024 through 2040. 7,500 cases made, 500 cases imported.
William Kelley im April 2022: The 2019 La Gaffelière wafts from the glass with a rich bouquet of blackberries and cherries mingled with subtle hints of burning embers and loamy soil that's framed by a deft application of creamy new oak. Medium to full-bodied, deep and seamless, it's a concentrated, vibrant wine built around bright acids and fine, powdery tannins. Its vivid fruit tones and classical balance make this Cabernet Franc-rich blend a promising candidate for sustained bottle age. Anyone who has tasted the great wines this estate produced in the 1950s and 1960s knows how great this site can be; and with stricter selection as well as the elimination of fruit from vines growing on the plain from the blend, that potential appears to be being unleashed at last.
Lisa Perrotti Brown bewertet den Chateau La Gaffeliere 2019 Saint Emilion im Juni 2020:Sporting a deep garnet-purple color. the 2019 La Gaffeliere reveals a tantalizingly bright. fresh nose of ripe black plums. crushed blackberries and warm black cherries with touches of lavender. star anise. Sichuan pepper and fragrant earth. The vibrant black fruits completely fill the medium to full-bodied palate with loads of crunchy. energetic flavors. framed by wonderfully plush tannins and a lively line of freshness. finishing with a mineral twist. Irresistibly scrumptious!
James Suckling bewertet den Chateau La Gaffeliere 2019 Saint Emilion im Juni 2020:A polished red with well-integrated tannins that are soft and persistent. Very tailored. It’s medium-bodied with rich fruit and a flavorful finish. Very fine and polished at the finish. Chewy at the end. Very tight.
Neal Martin bewertet den Chateau La Gaffeliere 2019 Saint Emilion im Mai 2020:The 2019 La Gaffelière is a distinctive Saint-Émilion. which should be inferred positively. There is something atypically very tertiary about the nose. beautifully defined and focused with plenty of fruit. yet very complex and cerebral. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins. a fine bead of acidity and wonderful harmony. The silky texture belies the structure underneath and the finish is extraordinarily long. Ancient vintages of La Gaffelière like the 1961 are legendary. This ranks alongside them - the best I have ever tasted. Magnificent.
