Composed of 72% Merlot and 28% Cabernet Franc and aged for 18 months in 70% new and 30% one-year-old barrels, the 2015 Canon is boldly fruited with blackberry preserves, black cherry compote, fruitcake, mocha and plum preserves with suggestions of Indian spices, licorice and black olives. Full-bodied and packed with ripe, rich dried berries and exotic spice layers, it has a firm, slightly chewy structure and just enough freshness (the pH is 3.78), finishing long and savory. Give it another 2-3 years of cellaring to soften its edges and allow its flavor spectrum to fully emerge, and drink it over the next 20 to 25+ years.
A blend of 72% Merlot and 28% Cabernet Franc, the 2018 Canon has a pH of 3.69 and 14% alcohol. Deep garnet-purple in color, it tumbles effortlessly out of the glass with a gorgeous perfume of candied violets, preserved plums, black cherry compote and Ceylon tea with hints of kirsch, powdered cinnamon, chocolate box and fertile loam. The medium to full-bodied palate is packed with juicy black fruit layers, supported by plush, oh-so-soft tannins and well-knit freshness, finishing long and fragrant.
Composed of 74% Merlot and 26% Cabernet Franc and aged for 18 months in 70% new French barriques, the 2016 Canon is medium to deep garnet-purple in colour, and -WOW- it opens with the most stunning perfume of violets, red roses and kirsch, giving way to a core of black cherry preserves, chocolate box, liquorice, warm plums and Chinese five spice plus an earthy waft of underbrush. Medium to full-bodied, the palate is filled with expressive, perfumed blackberry layers accented by lively red fruits and exotic spices, supported by impressively fine-grained tannins and fantastic tension, finishing very long with jaw-dropping energy.
The 2014 Canon has a very well-defined, precise bouquet with ebullient raspberry and wild strawberry scents infused with minerals. The aromatics here are utterly captivating. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannin and very well-judged acidity. There is tension and poise to this Saint Emilion, gently fanning out with a delicate spicy finish that lingers long in the mouth. Though surely destined to be over-shadowed by the extraordinary 2015, this Canon deserves a berth in your cellar.
The 2012 Canon is a stupendous wine for the vintage and if anything, it appears to be improving with each encounter. It clearly serves up more than enough volume and fruit intensity on the nose compared to the impressive 2011 Canon: it is very pure with black cherries, wild strawberry, asphalt and blood orange. This is very well defined and beautifully focused. The palate is medium-bodied, silky smooth and with that thrilling sense of frisson. There is so much vivacity wound up inside this Saint Emilion that it would not surprise me if it turns out to be one of the very best in 2012.
The 2011 Canon is a blend of 70% Merlot and 30% Cabernet Franc. It is undoubtedly one of the stars of the vintage, certainly one of the strongest offerings from Saint Emilion. The nose is bright, animated and playful with copious red cherries, fresh strawberry and dark plum aromas bursting from the glass. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannin, backwards compared to more extrovert Saint Emilion such as La Mondotte- a tensile, poised Saint Emilion that is destined to last longer than its peers. Classic in style, endearing and mineral-driven, this is a superb wine from the estate. This is a supreme success courtesy of former winemaker, John Kolasa.
Deep garnet colored, the 2010 Canon features wonderfully expressive notes of dried mulberries, stewed plums and baked black cherries with hints of mocha, bay leaves and fallen leaves. Full-bodied, opulent and super spicy, it has a plush texture with a racy line supporting the hedonic fruit, finishing with jaw-dropping persistence.
Tasted at the Château Canon vertical, the 2005 Canon is evolving into a quite gorgeous Saint Emilion. One can still discern those brown spices infiltrating the ripe red and black fruit. There is fine mineralité here, great focus, and perhaps just a hint of dried blood that develops with time. The palate is medium-bodied with supple, ripe tannin. It is a very complex Saint Emilion with immense purity and style, a wine that you have to keep coming back to to understand. It's at that pivotal stage between primary and secondary notes, the red and black fruit being overtaken by cedar, morels and a touch of game. It gently lifts and fans out to a quite captivating finish.
Earthy, mineral-like nuances intermixed with cranberry and cherry notes are present in this medium-bodied, superficial, but complex, charming St.-Emilion. While lacking power and richness, it offers complex aromatics and flavors in a mid-weight, delicate format. Drink it over the next 10-12 years.
Complex aromatics of damp earth, dried herbs, cherries, fresh mushrooms, and currants are followed by a medium-bodied, attractively made, elegant wine. With admirable complexity and a nice finish, it should drink well for 10-15 years.

The 2019 Canon has turned out brilliantly in bottle, wafting from the glass with complex aromas of raspberries and red plums mingled with notions of raw cocoa, dark chocolate, pencil shavings and rose petals. Medium to full-bodied, seamless and multidimensional, it's one of the most refined, elegant right bank wines of the vintage, with a deep core of fruit, beautifully refined tannins, lively acids and a long, perfumed finish. This is a superb achievement for Nicolas Audebert and his team.

Château Canon is a renowned wine producer located in the Saint-Émilion appellation of Bordeaux, France. The history of this estate dates back to the 18th century when it was owned by the Fournier family. In 1760, Jacques Kanon, a wine merchant from Bordeaux, purchased the estate and renamed it Château Canon. The estate has since been passed down through several generations of the Kanon family.

Château Canon is known for its exceptional terroir, which is characterized by limestone and clay soils. The vineyards are planted with a blend of grape varieties, including Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Cabernet Sauvignon. The grapes are hand-harvested and sorted before being fermented in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks.

The wines produced by Château Canon are known for their elegance, finesse, and complexity. They are aged in French oak barrels for up to 18 months, which imparts subtle notes of vanilla and spice to the wine. The flagship wine of the estate is the Château Canon Grand Cru Classé, which is a blend of Merlot and Cabernet Franc. This wine is known for its rich, velvety texture and notes of black fruit, tobacco, and leather.

In addition to the Grand Cru Classé, Château Canon also produces a second wine called Clos Canon. This wine is made from younger vines and is aged for a shorter period of time than the Grand Cru Classé. It is a more approachable wine that is meant to be enjoyed in its youth.

Overall, Château Canon is a producer that is known for its commitment to quality and tradition. The wines produced by this estate are some of the finest examples of Bordeaux wine and are highly sought after by collectors and enthusiasts alike.

Bordeaux, nel sud-ovest della Francia, non ha bisogno di presentazioni per essere una delle regioni vinicole più famose, prestigiose e prolifiche del mondo. La maggior parte dei vini di Bordeaux (quasi il 90% del volume di produzione) è costituita dai tagli bordolesi rossi secchi, medi e corposi che hanno creato la sua reputazione.

I più pregiati (e più costosi) sono i vini dei grandi châteaux dell'Haut-Médoc e delle denominazioni della riva destra Saint-Émilion e Pomerol. Il primo è incentrato (al massimo livello) sul Cabernet Sauvignon, il secondo sul Merlot.

I leggendari rossi sono completati da vini bianchi di alta qualità a base di Sémillon e Sauvignon Blanc. Si va dai bianchi secchi che sfidano i migliori della Borgogna (il Pessac-Léognan è particolarmente rinomato) ai nettari dolci e botritizzati di Sauternes.

Saint-Émilion è una denominazione vinicola situata nella regione di Bordeaux, in Francia. È nota per la produzione di alcuni dei migliori vini rossi del mondo, con una storia che risale all'epoca romana.

Lo stile di produzione di Saint-Émilion è fortemente influenzato dal terroir unico della regione, caratterizzato da terreni calcarei e argillosi. Le uve coltivate qui sono principalmente Merlot, Cabernet Franc e Cabernet Sauvignon, con alcuni Malbec e Petit Verdot coltivati in quantità minori.

I vini prodotti a Saint-Émilion sono tipicamente corposi e complessi, con ricchi sapori di frutta e un finale lungo e morbido. Spesso vengono descritti come vini dalla consistenza vellutata, con note di mora, prugna e ciliegia, oltre a sentori di spezie e rovere.

Una delle caratteristiche più notevoli dei vini di Saint-Émilion è il loro potenziale di invecchiamento. Molti dei migliori vini di questa denominazione possono essere conservati per decenni, sviluppando nel tempo una complessità e una profondità ancora maggiori.

La storia della viticoltura a Saint-Émilion risale all'VIII secolo, quando un monaco di nome Emilion si stabilì nella zona e iniziò a produrre vino. Nel corso dei secoli, la reputazione della regione per la qualità del vino è cresciuta e nel 1955 Saint-Émilion è stata ufficialmente riconosciuta come denominazione d'origine controllata (AOC).

Oggi a Saint-Émilion si contano oltre 1.000 produttori di vino, da piccole aziende a conduzione familiare a grandi attività commerciali. Molti di questi produttori si impegnano in pratiche agricole sostenibili e biologiche, assicurando che il terroir unico della regione sia preservato per le generazioni future.

Nel complesso, Saint-Émilion è una denominazione vinicola davvero eccezionale, che produce alcuni dei migliori vini rossi del mondo. Che siate intenditori esperti di vino o appassionati occasionali, una bottiglia di Saint-Émilion vi stupirà sicuramente.
