In this celebrated 2005 vintage, Chateau Canon shows deep, dark fruit layered with cedar, earth and subtle savory tones, all wrapped in powerful yet finely knit tannins. The wine feels broad-shouldered and concentrated but remains poised, with a long, stony finish that signals many years of life ahead.

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.
