Canon 2010

HED90477 75cl 15%
Château Canon is a Premier Grand Cru Classé ‘B’ estate situated within the Saint-Émilion appellation. The property was acquired in 1996 by the famous fashion house Chanel, who completely revitalized the brand. This is their grand vin from the 2010 vintage, a blend composed of 75% Merlot and 25% Cabernet Franc. Expect an enticing floral nose, complemented by bright red berries and cherries. The palate is fresh and juicy, revealing a silky texture and fine tannins.
The 2010 Château Canon is interesting to revisit today, especially considering the vintages that have come after it, some of which will take their place among the greatest ever made here. Somber in breeding, the 2010 shows more darkness and ripeness than the wines of today, with a stronger oak imprint, all of which serve to blur some of the definition that is such a Canon signature. From time to time, some of the finesse of Canon emerges, as do some characteristic Cabernet Franc inflections, yet the 2010 feels a bit imprisoned by the style of the era in which it was made. The bouquet and overall profile suggest that the 2010 has arrived at an early plateau of maturity. I imagine it will develop for many years to come, but I also don’t see meaningful improvement in the cards.
