Canon-la-Gaffeliere - 2015 (750ml) Size:750ml It is difficult to know

It is difficult to know whether the 2005 Pontet-Canet will ultimately eclipse the hedonism and density of the flamboyant 2003

The 1996 Latour is medium to deep garnet in color with a profound earthy

wild strawberry

dense 2017 Chateauneuf du Pape seems a bit closed at the moment

tremendous reserves of fruit and concentration

Canon-la-Gaffeliere - 2015 (750ml) Size:750ml It is difficult to knowEnticing warm plum, fig and blackberry compote notes roll through, inlaid with singed alder and tobacco accents. There's a light tug of warm cast iron and another wave of fruit after that, all supported by well buried chalky minerality. This is a very strong showing and has put on some weight since the barrel tasting. Best from 2020 through 2040. 6,665 cases made. JM Wine Spectator 95 points
