Château Gaby 'Princess Gaby' Canon Fronsac 2017

In Bordeaux you can find value in a chateau’s second & third wines. Gaby leaves its grapes long on the vine in order to develop “the aromas specific to their variety” and because they produce high quality grapes they are able to produce Princess Gaby Canon Fronsac 2017 as their third wine, Château Gaby being their second.

Recommended with steak, beef casseroles, lamb, chicken, turkey and smooth enough to have with pork dishes also. Also good with cheese, tomato-based dishes, mushrooms, roast vegetables etc.

It is worth decanting and letting this wine breathe for 30 minutes before serving. There may be a little sediment. Serve at: 15 – 17°C

“The Château Gaby vineyard produces such great quality grapes that we can create three tiers of excellent wine. Princess Gaby, our third wine, is a blend of 80% Merlot, 10% Cabernet Franc, and 10% Cabernet Sauvignon.

Well-balanced with elegant flavours and fine tannins, the wine tastes of transformation. Strong on the nose with red fruits and liquorice notes, Princess Gaby softens on the palate with a long finish and traces of vanilla. To add complexity, Princess Gaby is aged in barrels used to make the award-winning Château Gaby.”
