Chateau Canon 1er Grand Cru Classe B 2021 0,75l

ROBERT PARKER – WINE ADVOCATE: “The 2020 Canon is a blend of 68% Merlot and 32% Cabernet Franc, aging for 18 months in French oak, 50% new. It weighs in with 14.5% alcohol and a pH of 3.53. Deep garnet-purple colored, it bursts from the glass with vivacious notes of Morello cherries, redcurrant jelly, wild blueberries and black raspberries, plus hints of powdered cinnamon, clove oil, star anise and dusty red soil. The medium to full-bodied palate is an exercise in grace, delivering exquisitely ripe, finely pixilated tannins and bold freshness to support the tight-knit black, red and blue fruit layers, finishing long with loads of exotic spices and mineral sparks. An exhilarating triumph!” – Lisa Perrotti-Brown

FALSTAFF: “Dunkles Rubingranat, violette Reflexe, breitere Randaufhellung. Rote Waldbeeren, ein Hauch von Lakritze, feine tabakige Nuancen, zart nach Mandarinenzesten, mineralischer Touch. Saftig, rote Kirschen, zart salzig, integrierte reife Tannine, engmaschig-zitronige Nuancen, wirkt ungemein leichtfüßig, gutes Reifepotenzial, ein finessenreicher Speisenbegleiter.” – Peter Moser
