Château La Gaffelière 2025 Syndicate Barrel

↓ Jump to the wines

Our second Bordeaux barrel syndicate of the 2025 campaign.

Antonio Galloni at Vinous scores it 97–99, calling it "a phenomenal wine by any measure" that "soars out of the glass with magnificent intensity." Jeb Dunnuck goes 96–98+, saying it will "check in near the top of this notable vintage." Neal Martin at 95–97 highlights "great personality and charm" and a Pomerol-like quality from the Cabernet Franc.

La Gaffelière turned heads when it left the St Émilion classification alongside Ausone, Cheval Blanc and Angélus. The wines since have more than justified that confidence — and with the 2025, Galloni's 97–99 outscores all three. Production is small, around 4,000 cases in a good year, well below both Angélus and Cheval Blanc. This is a La Gaffelière playing at a different level entirely, and at a fraction of the price of its peers.
