Château Canon 1973, Saint-Émilion Grand Cru Classé B, born on clay-limestone soil. This wine, dominated by Merlot, is aged in oak barrels. Aromas of blackberry and blackcurrant, with a woody touch. Mineral palate and silky tannins. Pairing: duck breast or thrush with grapes.
On the limestone plateau of Saint-Émilion, this family estate has embodied the elegance of an exceptional terroir for generations.
- Terroir: Clay-limestone soils of the Saint-Émilion plateau, the cradle of great Merlots and Cabernet Francs, where minerality shapes wines of rare precision.
- Vinification: Plot-by-plot aging in French oak barrels, respecting the natural balance between fruit and structure, for cuvées that are both deep and harmonious.
Tasting notes for Château Canon 1973
To the eye: Deep garnet robe with tawny highlights, of a silky density revealing nearly half a century of evolution.
On the nose: Aromas of wild blackberry, candied blackcurrant and damp undergrowth, lifted by a hint of cedar and a subtle chalky salinity.
On the palate: Velvety texture, driven by a lively acidity and a persistent minerality, with a long, spiced finish where liquorice and blonde tobacco intertwine.
Serve at 16°C in a Bordeaux glass to release its full complexity.
Vintage 1973
