Château Canon La Gaffelière - 1st Grand Cru Class B, Saint-Émilion

Discover Château Canon La Gaffelière, a gem of Saint-Émilion promoted to 1st Grand Cru Class B during the prestigious 2012 ranking. Owned by the von Neipperg family, this 19.5-hectare estate benefits from an exceptional terroir located on the southern slopes, offering ideal conditions for vine cultivation.

Wine Characteristics

Appellation: Saint-Émilion Grand Cru
Ranking: 1st Grand Cru Class B (2012 Ranking)
Owner: Stéphane von Neipperg
Area: 19.5 hectares
Grape Composition:
- 55% Merlot
- 40% Cabernet Franc
- 5% Cabernet Sauvignon

The Terroir and Expertise

Château Canon La Gaffelière is based on an exceptional terroir, characterized by clay-limestone and clay-sandy soils, perfect for noble grape varieties such as Merlot and Cabernet Franc. These conditions allow for the production of wines rich in flavor, with a beautiful structure and impressive aging potential.

Stéphane von Neipperg, passionate and committed to sustainable viticulture, applies biodynamic methods to respect the environment and reveal the full potential of the terroir. The blend of grape varieties produces wines of great aromatic complexity, offering black fruit notes, spices, and a touch of minerality.

Tasting Notes

The Château Canon La Gaffelière stands out with an intense color, often a deep garnet red, and reveals an enchanting bouquet of ripe red and black fruits, with spicy and woody nuances. On the palate, one discovers a powerful and elegant wine, structured by silky tannins and a persistent length. Its velvety finish makes it a wine with great aging potential, capable of evolving over several decades.

Vinification and Aging

The grapes are hand-harvested and carefully sorted to ensure the best quality. After fermentation in temperature-controlled stainless steel vats, the wine is aged for about 18 months in 60% new French oak barrels, which imparts subtle aromas of vanilla and cedarwood, while preserving the balance between power and finesse.

Food & Wine Pairings

The Château Canon La Gaffelière pairs perfectly with refined dishes such as:

Game (venison, hare)
Grilled or sauced red meats (ribeye, entrecôte)
Sauced dishes with truffles or mushrooms
Aged cheeses (Comté, Brie de Meaux)

Aging Potential

Thanks to its tannic structure and remarkable balance, Château Canon La Gaffelière can be enjoyed young, after a few years of aging, or stored in a cellar for 15 to 25 years to fully reveal its complexity.

Second Wine: Les Hauts de Canon La Gaffelière

The estate's second wine, Les Hauts de Canon La Gaffelière, comes from young vines and certain plots not used in the production of the grand vin. It is characterized by a cherry-red color with ruby highlights, of great clarity, and offers a more accessible alternative while staying true to the elegance and typicity of the Saint-Émilion terroir.

Why Choose Château Canon La Gaffelière?
