Located on the pied de côte (foot of the slope) south of the medieval village of Saint-Émilion, Château Canon La Gaffelière's terroir consists of clay-limestone and clay-sand soil that is very permeable and particularly efficient at retaining heat.

The Cabernets ripen early and remarkably well on Canon La Gaffelière's warm soil, adding power and aromatic complexity to Merlot's opulence to create wines of natural elegance and finesse.

Non-interventionist winemaking is practised and in such a way as to make the most of vintage character.

What the critics say:

97/100Antonio Galloni, Vinous

"The 2022 Canon-La-Gaffeliere soars out of the glass with a rush of exotic floral and spice notes. Rose petal, mint, white pepper, chalk, lavender and mocha make a strong first impression. Lithe and elegant, but with plenty of understated power, the 2022 is an absolute jewel of a wine. (2025, in bottle)"

17+/20James Lawther MW, Jancis Robinson

"Bright crimson hue. Lifted and aromatic with a wholesome expression of fruit. Juicy on the palate, the tannins smooth but persistent. Lots of energy. Lingers on the finish. Structured for ageing but already appealing."
