Uncover the enduring legacy of Saint-Émilion with Château La Gaffelière, a Premier Grand Cru Classé embodying centuries of winemaking excellence. Located in the prestigious "golden triangle" between the famed Châteaux Pavie and Ausone, and meticulously managed by the Malet Roquefort family for over 300 years, this wine offers a taste of unparalleled heritage and supreme quality.
Château La Gaffelière reveals a complex nose that gradually blends delicate fragrances of peony, iris, wild blackberries, liquorice, and wild strawberries with subtle roasted aromas from the initial aging period. Balanced and long, the palate seduces with its elegantly fresh, smooth, and refined tannins, showcasing an exquisite structure.
Château La Gaffelière's vineyard spans 38 hectares, with 22 of those being Premier Grand Cru Classé. The vines thrive across three distinct soil types, contributing to the wine's depth and intricacy: the famous Saint-Émilion asteriated limestone, the clayey Molasse outcrops of the Fronsadais, and deep, carbonate-rich sands. The vineyard is managed in a sustainable manner.
The wine is carefully aged for 14 months in French oak barrels, 50% of which are new.
Serve at 16-18 °C with roast beef, chicken steaks with cream and herb sauce or grilled meats.
