CRITIC REVIEWS
Neal Martin
The 2009 Canon-la-Gaffeliere has a very attractive bouquet with truffle and smoke infused black fruit, hints of roasted chestnut, secondary aromas beginning to come through nicely. The palate is medium-bodied with grainy tannin, very well balanced with hints of black toast and white pepper filtering through. This is well defined and more persistent than some of its peers, likewise it has become more classic in style in recent years. Superb. Tasted at BI Wines & Spirits' annual Ten Year On tasting.
Lisa Perrotti-Brown
Medium to deep garnet colored, the 2009 Canon la Gaffeliere leaps from the glass with bold baked blackberries, plum preserves and blueberry compote notes with nuances of licorice, sweaty leather, tapenade and garrigue. It is quite mature and open in the medium-bodied mouth, with a firm, chewy frame and lively backbone, finishing with loads of savory/meaty layers.

55% Merlot, 35% Cabernet Franc, 10% Cabernet Sauvignon. Big and bold and ripe though not the freshest red bordeaux around! A bit astringent now. Awkward middle age?
