The tasting note for 1995 Chateau La Gaffeliere St Emilion Premier Grand Cru Classe B is from Robert Parker - This dark ruby-colored wine offers spicy, smoky oak and soft, ripe, cherry and red currant flavors presented in a compressed but alluring, medium-bodied, finesse-filled format. Some tannin is present, but the overall impression is one of pretty fruit and a dry, crisp finish.
