"... schöne Frucht, etwas Kirchenbank, saftig, gute Balance, gewisse Strenge, kräftige Tannine, etwas süß-sauer, Weihrauch im Finish" (04/2026) 


Falstaff: 95 Punkte 

"Tiefdunkles Rubingranat, tintiger Kern, violette Reflexe, zarte Randaufhellung. Reife Zwetschken, dunkle Waldbeeren, etwas Nougat, kandierte Orangenzesten. Saftig, elegant, reife Beerenfrucht, reife, nahtlose Tannine, gute Frische, stoffiger Abgang, sehr gute Länge, vielversprechendes Potenzial." - Peter Moser (04/2026) 


Yves Beck: 97-98 Punkte 

"Die ersten Anzeichen, die das Bouquet von La Gaffelière vermittelt, lassen sich mit Tiefe, Vielfalt und Reinheit zusammenfassen! Was für eine großartige Eigenschaft, Nuancen von Pfingstrosen, reifen schwarzen Beeren und Kreide so wunderbar zu vereinen. Frische und Reife stehen Seite an Seite und versprechen jede Menge Genuss! Der cremige Auftakt weicht dem extravaganten, prägnanten Charakter der Struktur, die von kompakten, samtenen, feinkörnigen Tanninen umhüllt wird. Das Ergebnis ist eine ebenso überzeugende wie begeisternde Symbiose. Was für eine Kraft, was für ein Temperament, was für eine Harmonie in diesem Wein. Einmal mehr unterstreicht La Gaffelière, dass er zur Elite von Saint-Emilion gehört!" (04/2026)


Jane Anson: 96 Punkte 

"Thoroughly enjoyable, iris, juicy bilberry, loganberry, blackcurrant, rich, juicy and measured, has the fingerprint of limestone without being sharp. Clearly will age well, already totally delicious. 3.42 pH. Harvest September 12 to 22. 50% new oak." (04/2026)


Decanter: 94 Punkte 

"Perfumed fragrance on the nose. Juicy and fun straight away, the acidity gives this energy, focus and lift, bright and upfront. I love this, not trying too hard at all, there’s still tannins in the background but all the focus is on the fruit and balance. Crisp, yet totally fragrant on the palate too. There’s power no doubt but this is just really charming. Will be lovely after ageing." - Georgina Hindle (04/2026)

The 2025 La Gaffelière soars out of the glass with magnificent intensity. Strong Cabernet Franc overtones and bright saline notes from the clay-limestone plateau are finely sketched with tremendous precision. The 2025 bristles with tension from start to finish. It's a phenomenal wine by any measure. Tasted two times.

Well driven, velvety and precise, with red berry and leather aromas. Medium-bodied with fine, firm tannins. Crushed berry and dark chocolate flavors and a compact, savory finish. (04/2026)

A brilliant château that has been producing truly exceptional wines over the last decade or more, the 2025 Château La Gaffelière sports a deep purple hue and a gorgeous perfume of black and blue fruits, minty herbs, graphite, and chocolate, as well as perfectly integrated background oak. On the palate, it's ripe, full-bodied, and concentrated, with a deep, layered style that brings the purity as well as the freshness that's the hallmark of the vintage. It's going to check in near the top of this notable vintage. (05/2026)

Deep garnet-purple colored, the 2025 La Gaffelière is a touch closed to start off, revealing subtle notes of cedar chest, charcoal, and bay leaves before opening out to a core of fresh black plums and blackberry preserves, plus a waft of red roses. The medium-bodied palate has a firm structure of grainy tannins and refreshing acidity to match the bold black fruit and savory layers, finishing minerally. (04/2026)

The 2025 La Gaffelière reveals an open, expressive bouquet of cassis, with a vivid fruit profile that becomes more floral with aeration. Medium- to full-bodied, it's more reserved on the palate, built around a firm, limestone-inflected structure, with tannins that show a touch of dryness at this stage. The contrast between aromatic generosity and structural restraint will likely resolve with élevage.
