Wine of the evening for me in a diverse selection of 1960s wines from Bordeaux, Piedmont, and Spain, featuring a nose with a rich herbal and medicinal profile. The tongue is featured by a sweet and fruity texture, with a lovely stability of flavors. The wine is trying beautifully, and the 1961 Bordeaux vintage is uniquely impressive, with a strong and long finish.

What the web is saying

Château La Gaffelière Saint-Émilion Grand Cru is praised for its rich fruit flavors, silky tannins, and complex aromas of oak, vanilla, and spices. While some vintages are noted for their elegance and balance, others are criticized for lacking refinement or being past their peak. The wine's ability to age well is a highlight, with many reviewers noting its evolving complexity over time.

Voss Experts4.3

This Château La Gaffelière Saint-Émilion Grand Cru is a truly exquisite wine. It has a smooth texture and an aromatic nose with notes of dark cherry, plum, and spice. The palate is rich and full-bodied, with earthy flavors of leather, forest floor, and blackberry jam. The finish is long and elegant, with balanced acidity and silky tannins. A truly luxurious and memorable experience.
