Floral, cigar, fresh cherry blossom and tobacco on the nose get your focus. With a nice polish to the tannins with fresh plum and cocoa, this is drinking in the sweet spot. Read more at:https://www.thewinecellarinsider.com/wine-tasting-note/?vintage=2004&wine=Chateau%20Canon-la-Gaffeliere

A brilliant achievement for proprietor Stefan von Neipperg, this blend of 50% Merlot, 45% Cabernet Franc, and 5% Cabernet Sauvignon exhibits an exuberant, cedary bouquet revealing scents of espresso roast, chocolate, pain grille, and sweet red and black fruits. Opulent and fleshy for a 2004, this sexy beauty offers plenty of purity, symmetry, and sweet tannin. It will provide enjoyment over the next 10-15 years.

Shows subtle yet focused aromas of forest fruits and flowers. Full-bodied, with fine tannins, lovely length and a focused berry, cherry and blackberry finish. I like the pure fruit and finesse. Best after 2011. 4,580 cases made. –JS
