Château Canon la Gaffelière
On the southern slopes of Saint-Émilion, Château Canon la Gaffelière works a finely patterned mix of clay‑limestone and clay‑sand soils that naturally balance ripeness with lift. Close to the medieval town, this hillside setting adds drainage, exposure and a clear sense of place to every parcel.
Driven by the von Neipperg family, the estate leans on organic farming and meticulous plot‑by‑plot decisions: hand harvesting, rigorous sorting, gentle extraction and élevage in French oak barriques that builds structure without stealing the spotlight.
The blend—Merlot with a defining share of Cabernet Franc and touches of Cabernet Sauvignon—captures a Saint‑Émilion that favours precision, texture and poise over sheer weight, making it a persuasive choice for collectors and for premium Bordeaux programs.Château Canon la Gaffelière
