This is an impressive wine that has that ‘wow’ factor

There is outstanding concentration and muscle to the punchy medium weight plus flavors that conclude in a beautifully long and notably firm finish of focused power and seriously good depth

fresh and vibrant

this is so dense

an unctuous texture

Gaffeliere other_regions This is an impressive wineThe 2009 La Gaffelire has a rather over the top bouquet with smudged definition. It feels as if it underwent a warmer or longer maceration than its peers. The palate is medium bodied with a slightly viscous texture on the entry, lower acidity than many Right Banks, glossy and honeyed in texture towards the finish. Not really my style of wine, it feels cloying after a while. I much prefer the 2010 La Gaffelire that I tasted the week previously. Tasted
