GCC - Chateau La Gaffeliere 2015 - CBO 3Bt

A blend of 70% Merlot and 30% Cabernet Franc, La Gaffeliere 2015 is medium to deep garnet in color. It opens with slowly emerging scents of baked black plum, boysenberry preserves and tobacco leaf, plus suggestions of Indian spices and truffles. The full-bodied palate is rich with black fruit preserves and earthy layers, framed by grainy tannins and plenty of freshness, finishing long and earthy.

Impressive deep-set dark cherries, blueberries and dark plums here with neatly fitted spicy oak, which adds immediate complexity. Deep, long and fresh with vibrant acidity, underpinning ripe blackberries, plums and hints of chocolate. Superb wine. Try from 2022.
