Graceful power defines Chateau Canon 2009, which delivers sumptuous dark plum and berry fruit wrapped in a suave, velvety structure. Hints of tobacco, warm spice and stone run through the wine, giving it a cool, earthy backbone beneath the richness. Still youthful yet already deeply satisfying, it’s a benchmark Right Bank 2009 with impressive length and poise.

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.
