55% Merlot - 40% Cabernet Franc - 5% Cabernet Sauvignon

Winespectator 95/100

This cuts a wide swath, with mouthwatering tobacco and warm ganache notes leading the way, followed by a wave of fig, blackberry and black currant preserves. Shows remarkable definition already, even though the structure is strident. Tempting now, but just put this in the back of the cellar. Best from 2020 through 2035. — JM

Fass Probe. Superreife Früchte dominieren diesen Wein. Er ist großzügig und voll im Mund, die Tannine und die Struktur sind in der fruchtigen Fülle verborgen. Der Abgang zeigt reichlich Frische. ROGER VOSS

Suckling 93/100

Dies ist ein großer, reichhaltiger Wein mit Massen von reifen schwarzen Fruchtaromen und vielen geschmeidigen, trockenen Tanninen, die den vollen Körper sehr schön unterstützen. Trinken ab 2020.

Parker 92/100

The 2014 Canon la Gaffeliere has a fruit-driven, powerful bouquet with rounded raspberry, kirsch, mulberry and light honeyed scents that seem pure and seductive. The palate is medium-bodied with saturated red plum and tart cherry fruit. There is a spicy residue on the back palate with fine structure and poise towards the finish. As ever, a well-crafted, quite delicious Canon la Gaffeliere that should age with style. If the 2014 Canon doesn't quite deliver the opulence for you, then this suits the bill.
