The 2017 “Princess Gaby” is a Merlot-dominant blend (typically around 8590% Merlot with a small balance of Cabernet Franc and/or Cabernet Sauvignon), sourced from organically farmed, clay-limestone slopes in Canon-Fronsac a historic terroir west of Saint-milion. The wine undergoes a gentle vinification with native yeasts and is aged in French oak barrels (approximately 12 months, with a modest proportion of new oak), resulting in a polished yet terroir-transparent style.
This vintage, shaped by a cool spring and dry summer, shows clarity and finesse: lifted aromatics, pure fruit expression, and fine-boned structure.
Its approachable, rounded character makes it a versatile partner for dishes such as roast duck, mushroom risotto, grilled lamb, or aged Comt.
ABOUT THE PRODUCER
Chteau Gaby is a meticulously restored 18th-century estate perched on a hilltop overlooking the Dordogne River in Canon-Fronsac. Since its revival in the early 2000s, the estate has been focused on organic viticulture, with full organic certification since 2018. The philosophy here is one of minimal intervention and authenticity letting the distinctive clay-limestone soils and old-vine Merlot speak clearly through each vintage.
Under the guidance of winemaker Damien Landouar, the chteau produces both classic and expressive wines, with Princess Gaby positioned as a more fruit-forward, early-drinking cuve. The estate balances heritage with a forward-thinking, sustainable approach, making it a standout in the Canon-Fronsac appellation.
