Chateau Canon is a blend of Merlot & Cabernet Franc & is classified as a Premier Grands Crus Classe (B). The Chateau has been held in high regard for many hundreds of years & has more recently become something of a hit with critics & wine lovers alike. The wines are robust & concentrated, embracing the best of modern Bordeaux styling.

Deep garnet in color, the 2012 Canon storms out of the glass with powerful notes of baked blackberries, prunes, and scorched earth leading to hints of sandalwood and tobacco with a waft of dried herbs. The medium to full-bodied palate delivers a generous core of mature black fruit and savory layers, with a chewy texture and a stewed tea note on the finish.Lisa Perrotti-Brown27th March 2024

The 2012 Canon just misses a little delineation on the nose, smudged red berry fruit, desiccated orange peel, camphor and fresh figs. The palate is medium-bodied with rounded tannins, a generous dab of white pepper sprinkled over the red fruit, clove and sage towards the balanced and focused finish. Perhaps just compromised by the aromatics at the moment, but I might leave this in bottle to see how it evolves. Tasted twice at Bordeaux Index's Ten Year-On tasting and blind at the Southwold Ten-Year On tasting. Neal Martin27th September 2022
