Chateau Canon St Emilion Grand Cru Classe B 2010

Located on the Saint-Émilion limestone plateau, Château Canon is an emblematic estate with an outstanding terroir entitling it to Premier Grand Cru Classé status since 1954. Like the maison Chanel, who have owned Canon since 1996, Château Canon epitomises a style that is timeless, elegant and always fashionable. Canon is in good hands under Nicolas Audebert, the Admiral’s son who is fast making a name for himself as one of Bordeaux’s most exciting young winemakers.

“Wonderful nose with strawberries, cherry blossom, and vanilla. The red opens up with blueberries, milk chocolate and sweet licorice. Full and juicy on palate with pure dark fruit and velvety tannins. So nicely layered texture and long in the finish with red fruit and crushed chalk. The texture is superb. Drink from 2018” – 96 Points – James Suckling
