Heiner Lobenberg om:
Chateau La Gaffeliere 2024

95–96
/100

60 procent Merlot, 40 procent Cabernet Franc. Let lakrids, Nutella, slåen og et strejf af hindbær i næsen. Også lidt rabarber, meget fint! Legesyg mund med masser af rød frugt. Rabarberne gør igen det hele lidt grønt, men sammen med de modne hindbær og søde røde kirsebær er det simpelthen elegant og spændende. Samlet set stadig lidt ujævn og ubalanceret, men en meget god vin i denne vingårds smarte stil, simpelthen en fornøjelse. ***. Grev Leo de Malet-Roquefort bor selv på den historiske vingård og administrerer den med hjælp fra det samme team som Château Berliquet. Den ligger direkte på den nedre kant af Saint-Émilion på kalksten. Ekstremt up-and-coming i mange år. Forlod UGC i 2023 i protest mod den manglende opgradering.

Alexandre Ma om: Chateau La Gaffeliere

Orange peel, blood grapefruit, and red dates appear one after another, bright and ethereal. A lifted red tea aroma from whole-cluster fermentation adds a flowing elegance, bringing a vivid sense of movement and inner tension to Château La Gaffelière in 2024. It shatters all preconceptions about what a cool, rainy vintage can be. On the palate, a delicioust and cheerful clarity takes the lead, while high acidity lends lift to a structure as slender and poised as a model in stride. This year, the estate not only preserved its 43% Cabernet Franc, but also introduced 13% Cabernet Sauvignon – an unusual decision that brings new architecture and depth to its typically airy style, making it one of the most radiant expressions of the vintage.

Markus Del Monego om: Chateau La Gaffeliere

Dark purple colour with violet hue. Expressive nose with ripe fruit, blackberries, mulberries and sloe, black cherries and plums in the background. Complemented by vanilla, mild spices and dark chocolate with hints of aromatic herbs in the background. On the palate well structured and balancedwith firm tannins, ripe fruit, subtle oak and convincing length. Tastingbook.com

Decanter om: Chateau La Gaffeliere

Fragrant blackcurrants and plum notes on the nose Clean, juicy and so lifted, this has great purity and focus from the start but also a sense of brightness and tang which gives him a happy, joyous aspect before salty tannins and saline notes come through. Finessed and sophisticated with uber charm. A totally delicious and easy drinking wine. Great energy, sapidity and freshness. Delicate but just so drinkable.

The Wine Independent om: Chateau La Gaffeliere

Deep garnet-purple colored. Needs some patient swirling to wake up scents of fresh black cherries, black plums, and boysenberries, followed by hints of underbrush, anise, and fragrant soil. The medium-bodied palate has plush tannins and refreshing acidity framing the juicy black fruit flavors, finishing long and perfumed.

Galloni om: Chateau La Gaffeliere

The 2024 La Gaffelière confirms its place as one of the top properties in Saint-Émilion in this challenging vintage. Bright and dynamic in the glass, with terrific persistence, the 2024 sizzles with tension. Crushed flowers, mint, lavender and crushed rocks open in the glass. The finesse of the tannins is impossible to miss. The 2024 is not a huge wine, but its finesse is evident. Blue/purplish fruit, slate and clean mineral overtones extend the long, sculpted finish. Tasted three times.
