Château La Gaffelière – 1er Grand Cru Classé B of Saint-Émilion, an Exceptional Wine

Château La Gaffelière is a jewel of the Saint-Émilion appellation, classified as a 1er Grand Cru Classé B. Located in the heart of the prestigious Bordeaux vineyard, this estate has been owned by the de Malet Roquefort family for three centuries, ensuring a tradition of excellence and expertise passed down from generation to generation. Under the current leadership of Alexandre de Malet Roquefort, the estate has successfully combined heritage and innovation to produce wines of exceptional quality.

An Exceptional Terroir

The vineyard of Château La Gaffelière spans 36 hectares with a specific varietal composition: 80% Merlot and 20% Cabernet Franc. This unique terroir, located on the limestone and clay-limestone slopes of Saint-Émilion, imparts an elegant, complex structure and great aromatic depth to the wine.

Thanks to meticulous plot-specific vinification and the use of a modern barrel cellar, each plot is vinified separately, allowing the full potential of the different grape varieties and terroirs to be revealed. The attention to detail in every step of production, from vine cultivation to barrel aging, reflects a constant commitment to excellence.

Tasting Notes

Château La Gaffelière is distinguished by its refined character and great longevity. After about ten years of aging, the wine reveals its full potential, offering a rich and complex aromatic palette.

Color: Deep red with purplish hues.
Nose: Aromas of black cherry, morello cherry, and redcurrant, accompanied by subtle notes of spices and truffle.
Palate: Concentrated and elegant, with a beautiful roundness on the palate. The tannins are fine and silky, offering a long and harmonious finish.
Aging potential: This wine can be enjoyed now, but it reaches its peak after 10 to 15 years of aging, revealing its full complexity and depth.

Food and Wine Pairings

Château La Gaffelière pairs perfectly with a variety of refined dishes. Here are some food and wine pairing suggestions to enhance this tasting experience:

Game (venison, hare, wild boar)
Grilled or sauced red meats (rib of beef, lamb)
Truffle dishes (truffle risotto, truffle poultry)
Aged cheeses (Comté, Brie de Meaux, Saint-Nectaire)

The Second Wine: Clos La Gaffelière

The estate also produces a second wine, Clos La Gaffelière, which deserves your attention. More approachable in its youth, this wine offers great concentration with supple tannins. It reveals a rich and complex aromatic bouquet, with notes of red fruits, spices, and a slight touch of oak. Although ready to be enjoyed earlier than the grand vin, it can also be cellared for a few years to reveal more nuances.

Commitments and Philosophy of the Estate

Under the guidance of Alexandre de Malet Roquefort, Château La Gaffelière has invested in sustainable and environmentally friendly agricultural practices, ensuring responsible vineyard management. Plot-specific vinification not only respects the diversity of terroirs but also produces wines that fully express their typicity.
