Bordeaux's Chateau La Gaffeliere lies within walking distance from the charming medieval village of St. Emilion, and has been owned by the noble family of Malet-Roquefort for over 300 years. Its historic significance is enhanced by the discovery of 2nd Century ancient Roman ruins on the property. Following a state of the art renovation of its production facility, and amidst consistent reviews from the major wine writers scoring @ upwards of 97 points, many were stunned when this premier estate announced its decision in 2022 to depart the formalities of grand cru classification. #bordeauxwine #grandcruclasse #chateaulagaffeliere #grandcru #saintemilioni
