Anthocyanes - Yohan Castaing
The nose is aromatic, elegant, fine, aromatic and offers delicacy. It reveals notes of blackberry, crushed cassis, iris / flowers and small notes of crunchy strawberry associated with small touches of spices, small toasted touches, Sichuan pepper as well as a hint of racy minerality and a discreet hint of licorice. The palate is fruity, well-balanced and offers a good definition, softness, freshness, a beautiful density (but full of finesse), a small tension as well as a slight acidulous frame. On the palate this wine expresses notes of juicy / fleshy blackberry, fleshy strawberry and small notes of fleshy berries associated with small / fine toasted touches, minerality and a very discreet touch of vanilla. Tannins are fine, well-built and elegant. Gourmandise and a very discreet chew on the finish.

Robert Parker Wine Advocate
The 2016 Canon la Gaffeliere is a blend of 55% Merlot, 35% Cabernet Franc and 10% Cabernet Sauvignon (vines organically certified) picked from 26 September to 15 October and matured in 60% new oak. The yield is 42 hectoliters per hectare. This offers one of the most cerebral aromatics that I have encountered from this Saint Emilion estate: mineral-rich red and black fruit, quite edgy, almost flinty in style. I adore the focus of these aromas that are wired directly into the olfactory senses. The palate is very well balanced and governed by the Cabernet component. The black fruit is lifted by some lovely graphite notes that lend it a very Left Bank-like personality. It is fresh, taut and linear with a very persistent finish. Unlike other vintages of Canon la Gaffelière, I feel that this will require four to five years in bottle. As good as the 2015 last year, it might even surpass it.
