    Lively, pure and precise Saint Emilion Grand Cru 

    "Canon la Gaffellere features a deep garnet-purple color and a cedar-laced nose to begin, giving way to fragrant underying scents of roses and violets with a core of crushed black currants. blackberries and Bing cherries plus hints of fallen leaves and dusty earth. Medium to full bodied, the seductively red and black fruit fills the mouth framed with plush tannins and plenty of freshness, finishing very long and  minerally"

    STORY BEHIND THE WINE

    The fruit was harvested between September 19th and October 6th, 2015, with yields kept to a concentrated 37 hl/ha to ensure maximum depth and flavour. In the cellar, the wine underwent a 30-day fermentation in traditional wooden vats, using pneumatic pigeage (punching down the cap) for a gentle yet thorough extraction of color and tannin. To build structure and complexity, the wine was aged for 17 months in 55% new oak barrels on its lees. To preserve its natural character and texture, the wine was never fined.
