Château La Gaffelière 2020 is an elegant and exclusive red wine from Saint-Émilion, Bordeaux, with great finesse, beautiful depth, and a refined expression. The vintage appears concentrated and harmonious with freshness, structure, and aging potential.

The aroma offers blackcurrant, raspberry, and dark plums, complemented by floral notes, spices, graphite, and a discreet hint of dark chocolate. The taste is full-bodied and precise with silky tannins, juicy fruit, and a beautiful balance between ripeness, minerality, and elegant freshness in the long finish.

The wine pairs excellently with beef, veal, lamb, duck, game, as well as braised, grilled, and oven-roasted dishes – an obvious choice for exclusive dinners and special occasions.

97 /100

Deep purple-black colored, the 2020 La Gaffeliere gallops out of the glass with exuberant scents of crushed black plums, boysenberries and fresh blackberries, plus hints of eucalyptus, dark chocolate, crushed rocks and iron ore, with a waft of lavender. The medium to full-bodied palate shimmers with compelling energy, delivering layers of black and red berries with fantastic tension and finely grained tannins, finishing very long and wonderfully minerally. - Lisa Perrotti-Brown, Wine Advocate

Robert Parker wine advocate

95 /100

An excellent vintage, showcasing mulberry and rich ripe raspberry. The fruit in this vintage was just a touch riper than in the 2019, and you feel it in the structure, width and depth through the palate. Well-carved out tannic architecture, with waves of graphite, gunsmoke, cumin and sage. 50% new oak for ageing, Stéphane Derenoncourt consultant.

Jane Anson

96 /100

This wine's ripe tannins and fine perfumes come from the 40% Cabernet Franc in the blend. The structure is powerful even if masked by the generous black fruits. The wine has great potential. Drink from 2027.

Wine Enthusiast

95 /100

Wild plum and iris fragrance then chocolate, intensely herbal, herbal bitters, black pepper. Robustly built on the palate; grainy, fleshy, exceptionally well extracted, rich matter, a pinch of greenness heightens the tension without disrupting the harmony, well integrated alcohol, ripe macerated fruit, tobacco finish. A firm, very powerful wine with an aromatic lift of freshness; an exceptional prospect.

About the grape

Cabernet Franc - Merlot

Cabernet Franc – Merlot er en klassisk variant af det røde Bordeaux‑blend, særligt forbundet med Right Bank‑områderne Saint‑Émilion og Pomerol, hvor nogle af verdens mest prestigefyldte vine skabes på netop denne kombination.

Merlot udgør typisk hoveddelen af blendet og bidrager med moden mørk frugt, blød mundfølelse og rund struktur, med smagsnoter af blomme, mørke bær og ofte et strejf af chokolade. Cabernet Franc giver til gengæld aromatisk løft, floralitet, friskhed og krydderi, og dens karakteristiske urtede noter og elegante tanninprofil tilføjer kompleksitet og finesse.

Denne balance mellem Merlots generøse frugt og Cabernet Francs vibrerende aromatik skaber vine, der er både tilgængelige i deres ungdom og samtidigt lagringsdygtige. Kombinationen er så succesfuld i Bordeaux, at store navne som Château Cheval Blanc er kendt for netop denne druekombination.

Blendet findes nu også uden for Frankrig, bl.a. i Californien, Washington, New York, Toscana og Sydafrika, hvor producenter fortolker det i både frugtdrevne og mere strukturerede udgaver.

Serving

Server ved 16–18°C i store Bordeaux‑glas for at fremhæve både frugt og aromatik.
