Château Canon La Gaffelière 2017
Located on the pied de côte (foot of the slope) south of the medieval village of Saint-Émilion, Château Canon La Gaffelière's terroir consists of clay-limestone and clay-sand soil that is very permeable and particularly efficient at retaining heat. The choice of grape varieties is rather atypical for the appellation in light of the soil: almost a perfect 50/50 divide between Merlot and Cabernet. The Cabernets ripen early and remarkably well on Canon La Gaffelière's warm soil, adding power and aromatic complexity to Merlot's opulence to create wines of natural elegance and finesse.
Nuits-Saint-Georges, Aux Thorey, Domaine de Montille 2020
The 2020 Domaine de Montille Aux Thorey has vibrant floral notes interwoven with red currant and gentle spice. Plush yet measured tannins, and a mineral core bursting with elegant fruit depth and polished finesse, it's graceful and age-worthy, embodying the restrained power typical of top-tier Nuits-Saint-Georges. Domaine de Montille is one of Burgundy’s most revered estates and this burgeoning family property is very much at the top of its game, producing wines of exceptional quality: scintillating, proper Burgundies, unusually across both reds and whites.
