The Canon La Gaffelière – Grand Cru Classé B 2022 displays a deep, rich ruby color in the glass, indicating its concentration and classic profile. On the nose, it reveals a complex bouquet of ripe dark fruits, including blackberries, black cherries, and plums, harmonized with elegant floral notes and subtle spicy hints such as tobacco, licorice, and gentle oak influence from barrel aging.
On the palate, this Saint-Émilion offers a balanced structure with velvety tannins and vibrant freshness, supported by layered flavors of cassis, dark chocolate, spice and a touch of graphite. The long, expressive finish underscores its complexity and depth, making it a refined wine with both elegance and power.
