Heiner Lobenberg om:
Chateau Canon 1er Grand Cru Classe B 2019
/100
80 procent ligger på ren kalksten på plateauet - den bedste beliggenhed i Saint-Émilion. 20 procent på plateauets sydlige skråninger med lidt mere ler og sand. 14,5 procent alkohol i volumen. 74 procent Merlot, 26 procent Cabernet Franc. Klart lokaliseret: Merlot fra Saint-Émilion. Fyldig, tæt, med kraft og tryk. Dyb sort frugt, fra cassis til ekstremt moden blomme. Udviser ekstrem tæthed. En moderne Saint-Émilion, en fan af sort frugt. Kun 50 procent nyt træ, resten er brugt. Ingen skarp toast. Kun meget let overpumpet, så vinen er på ingen måde overekstraheret. Meget intens i munden. Grandios, hurtig friskhed kommer ind i denne sorte, lakridsagtige, cremede blanding af cassis, blommer og sorte kirsebær. Meget lang og salt i slutningen. Vinen er 100 procent afstilket, og 100 procent af den frugt, der vokser her, går til den første vin. Jeg smagte den sammen med Rauzan-Ségla, som tilhører samme ejerfirma. Og den kan ikke helt opretholde denne ekstreme elegance. Selv inden for Saint-Émilion ser jeg den i forreste række, stor Saint-Émilion, meget klassisk og meget typisk. 100/100

Jane Anson om: Chateau Canon 1er Grand Cru Classe B
Château Canon has been taking off over the past few years, and here you see why. Just so much complexity, depth, power, interest in the whole thing. This buzzes with life, rises above the palate, full of gunsmoke, truffle, raspberry, blueberry, so delicious. Needs time but already showing it will be worth the wait. 45hl/h, 3.5ph, Harvest September 11 to October 4, 50% new oak. Thomas Duclos consults. 100/100
The Wine Independent om: Chateau Canon 1er Grand Cru Classe B
Composed of 74% Merlot and 26% Cabernet Franc, the 2019 Canon is deep garnet-purple in color. It offers up fragrant notes of mocha, violets, and licorice over a core of plum preserves and wild blueberries, plus a waft of Indian spices. The full-bodied palate is full-on gorgeous, delivering bright, energetic black and blue fruit layers with a lively backbone and super-fine, perfectly ripe tannins, finishing long, long, long. 100/100

Decanter om: Chateau Canon 1er Grand Cru Classe B
Fragranced and nuanced on the nose, full of ripe blackcurrants with a milk chocolate dusting and heady floral aspects that immediately draw you in. Serious in the glass, this is broad-shouldered but carried so well with the fine tannins and round fruit. It's dark in profile, full of blackcurrants, black cherries and plums with touches of dark chocolate, tobacco, coffee grounds, liquorice and clove all wrapped up and neatly presented with clarity and linearity. You can feel the tension on this, so flavourful but so knitted right now, coursing from the start to finish in a straight line but with waves of flavour of softly sweet fruit, medicinal herbs, savoury tones and minty cool elements on the finish. The flavours just go on and on expanding and filling the mouth with an undercurrent of mineral salinity that gives freshness and lifts the palate but also keeps everything straight and in line. Beautifully handled with such poise. Really captivating. Drinking window: 2028-2050. 98/100

Galloni om: Chateau Canon 1er Grand Cru Classe B
The 2019 Canon is creamy and layered. A wine of immense charm and sensuality, the 2019 is immediately appealing today, but also clearly has the potential to age for many decades. The 2019 is not as exuberant as most recent vintages, and yet its balance is simply magnificent. Readers can expect an aristocratic Saint-Émilion that is holding so much in reserve. Patience is key. Tasted three times. 98/100

Jeb Dunnuck om: Chateau Canon 1er Grand Cru Classe B
The 2019 Château Canon is another brilliant wine from this talented team that delivers everything you could want from this incredible terroir located on the upper limestone plateau. Based on 74% Merlot and 26% Cabernet Franc, it has a pure, incredibly refined, yet still powerful profile that takes time to unwind. Offering up beautiful notes of black raspberries, wild strawberries, spring flowers, chalky minerality, and graphite, it hits the palate with medium to full-bodied richness, a layered, multi-dimensional mouthfeel, ultra-fine tannins, and a finish that's something to behold. This isn't the massive style of the 2015 and reminds me slightly of the 2016. It's perfectly balanced and, again, the purity and finesse are off the charts. It needs to be forgotten for 4-5 years and enjoyed over the following 2-3 decades. Hats off to Nicolas Audebert for another sensational wine. 98/100

Parker om: Chateau Canon 1er Grand Cru Classe B
The 2019 Canon has turned out brilliantly in bottle, wafting from the glass with complex aromas of raspberries and red plums mingled with notions of raw cocoa, dark chocolate, pencil shavings and rose petals. Medium to full-bodied, seamless and multidimensional, it's one of the most refined, elegant right bank wines of the vintage, with a deep core of fruit, beautifully refined tannins, lively acids and a long, perfumed finish. This is a superb achievement for Nicolas Audebert and his team. 97/100
Chateau Canon
Vinmarkerne på Chateau Canon ligger på plateauet i Saint Emilion med ler og dyb kalksten. Den udsatte syd/sydvest-eksponering giver druerne et betydeligt højere antal solskinstimer, hvilket resulterer i en bedre modning af druerne.
