The 2000 Château Canon-la-Gaffelière comes from one of Saint-Émilion’s most respected estates, historically linked with the Neipperg family and situated on well-drained gravel and clay-limestone soils that favor Merlot and Cabernet Franc blends and produce wines of both power and finesse. The 2000 vintage in Bordeaux is widely regarded as one of the standout millennial years, combining generous ripeness with structure, and Canon-la-Gaffelière’s rendition benefited from meticulous vineyard work and extended oak ageing (about 18 months in new barrels) that helped build depth and complexity. In terms of elite scores, Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate awarded the 2000 vintage 95 points, highlighting its concentration, balance and aromatic intensity, marking it as one of the estate’s most accomplished efforts of that era.
