Critic reviews
"A blend of 43% Merlot, 43% Cabernet Franc and 14% Cabernet Sauvignon, the 2024 Canon la Gaffelière is a bit dark and brooding, revealing aromas of iris, flowers, gentian and oak mingled with a delicate reduction. Moderately weighted, chewy and compact, it has a lively mid-palate, brittle tannins and a spicy, licorice-inflected finish."
Yohan Castaing, April 2025, RobertParker.com
"The 2024 Canon La Gaffelière was picked from September 25 to October 5 and aged in 30% new oak. This has a light and airy bouquet with tertiary red fruit and touches of tobacco coming through slowly in the glass. The palate is medium-bodied with a tiny bit of greenness on the entry, although I feel it will assimilate with time. This just needs more density and grip on the finish, so it is a Canon-la-Gaffelière that I would broach in the medium term."

"The 2024 Canon-La-Gaffelière is all class. Delicate and pliant, the 2024 is another fine offering in this range from Stephan von Neipperg. Dark red-toned fruit, pomegranate, spice, blood orange, new leather and pipe tobacco build in the glass. Like all the wines here, Canon-La-Gaffelière is on the lighter side, but it very much retains all of its signatures. Exquisite."
Antonio Galloni, April 2025, Vinous.com
"A polished CLG with berries and medium body, this is very fine and linear in the finish. Citrus and crushed-stone undertones. White pepper. From organically grown grapes."
James Suckling, May 2025, JamesSuckling.com
"Soft ruby in colour, medium intensity, rose petals on the nose, light, fragrant and delicate, red fruits, wild strawberries, white flowers, really pretty and well handled. 42 hl/ha yield, 30% new oak for ageing. Tasted twice, good quality. Harvest 25 September to 5 October. 30% new oak"
