Note di degustazione
The first vintage under the Malet Roquefort family of Château La Gaffelière. The 19-hectare vineyard sits on a ridge of limestone and clay on the eastern side of the appellation. Round and fresh, with some life in it; but is this one of Bordeaux's myriad bargains? (JR)

A blend of 80% Merlot and 20% Cabernet Franc from the team at Gaffelière, the 2020 Puy-Blanquet exhibits aromas of sweet red berries, bay leaf, licorice and petals, followed by a medium to full-bodied, lively palate that's fine-boned, integrated and mineral in profile.
The 2020 Château Puyblanquet is up-front and fruit-loaded, with lots of darker berries, truffle, iron, and leafy herb notes to go with a medium to full-bodied style on the palate. It has ripe tannins, good balance, and shines for its fruit and length. I like it today and see no need to hold off, although it's going to keep for at least 8-10 years.
This shows aromas of ripe black cherries, mulberries, dark chocolate, licorice and crushed walnut. Medium- to full-bodied, dense and velvety with creamy tannins and silky texture. Polished finish. 80% merlot and 20% cabernet franc. Drink from 2025.
