Deeply colored, the wine is concentrated, powerful, long, rich and intense. The fruits coat your palate with its layers of black and dark red fruits. The tannins are ripe. the fruits are sweet, lush, and opulent, as well as vibrant and elegant. The lengthy finish balances its mineral driven side with its power and freshness. The wine blends 80% Merlot with 20% Cabernet Franc, 14% ABV. The harvest took place September 3 - September 9. 2027-2060. 97-99 Pts.

98 vvPunkte / (80% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Franc, 40% Neuholz, 14% Alkohol) Dunkelfruchtig mit Kirschen, Pflaumen und Brombeeren, diese Nase zeigt Tiefgang, eine mineralische Note, dazu findet man viel Würze in diesem Bouquet. Der Gaumen ist vollmundig, sehr opulent, süsse Frucht, das hat viel Volumen, eine top Struktur, trotz der Fülle ist der Wein vertikal, hat ein faszinierendes Rückgrat, messerscharfe Tannine, grandiose Säure. Ein Monument, eine Eisenfaust im Seidenhandschuh. (Verkostet "En Primeur" im April 2023 auf Château Canon la Gaffelière) #primeurs22 www.vvWine.ch

Nose: Very good 9/10. Cherry notes, minerally. Palate: 9/10. Full body. Opulent. Fruity. Finish: 9/10. Long finish. Concentrated dark fruits and tannins. A beauty! Could be a 96-98 in 10-15 years.
Tasted at Château Canon la Gaffelière around En Primeur. Along with 2022 Canon la Gaffelière.
