2018 Château Canon Saint-Émilion Premier Grand Cru Classé

The Canon 2018 is a blend of 72% Merlot and 28% Cabernet Franc, Deep garnet purple in color, it tumbles effortlessly from the glass with a beautiful perfume of candied violets, preserved plums, black cherry compote and Ceylon tea with hints of kirsch, cinnamon powder, chocolate box and fertile loam. The medium to full flavor is packed with layers of juicy black fruit, supported by soft, oh-so-soft tannins and a firm freshness, with a long and fragrant finish.

This cru of 34 hectares belongs to the Wertheimer family, just like Ch Rauzan Ségla in Margaux. This family also owns the fashion house Chanel. Currently, director John Kolosa and the young cellar master Stéphane Bonnasse are improving the quality year after year. In 2011, the property was increased by 12.5ha thanks to the purchase of the neighbor Ch Matras, this vineyard was integrated into the second wine "Clos Canon". The terroir of Ch Canon is located at the very top of St Emilion on the limestone plateau and produces a concentrated but elegant, delicious wine that is at the level of the largest St Emilions in terms of quality! Organic products are used here to treat diseases, but without certification at the moment.
