Very generously appointed with ripe, black cherry fruit and decked out with a broad sweep of sweet spice in both scent and taste and showing lovely continuity and fine concentration, Château Canon is a serious, far-reaching St.-Emilion wine that compels contemplation and seems to reveal a little more interest with each sniff and sip. It is not an immense wine, but it is one of great strength and real beauty that is guaranteed to pay even greater dividends when laid away and allowed to develop for six to ten years.
Blend: 74% Merlot and 26% Cabernet Franc
