Now in a beautifully expressive phase, the 2000 Château Canon offers gently evolved colour and a perfume of dried flowers, soft leather, red and black berries and subtle spice, all carried by vivid limestone-driven freshness. On the palate it is silky yet still powerful through the mid-palate, with concentrated fruit, refined tannins and a long, savoury, oak‑tinged finish that shows why this vintage is so highly regarded at the estate.

Château Canon is the grand vin of this historic Premier Grand Cru Classé estate on Saint-Émilion’s limestone plateau, a Merlot‑dominant blend (with significant Cabernet Franc) that marries voluptuous, ripe fruit with marked chalky, mineral tension. Rooted in clay‑limestone soils above underground quarries and farmed by the Chanel-owned property, it is renowned for its refined, ageworthy style that showcases both the rigor and elegance of top right‑bank Bordeaux.
