Château Canon, Saint-Emilion 2019
RRP £105
Exemplary Saint-Emilion reflecting the limestone plateau, with deep violet floral aromatics presaging superb palate depth and density, without heaviness. The blend of 74% Merlot and 26% Cabernet Franc achieves pristine balance between freshness and power, leading to a superlong finish. Easily among the top five wines tasted at the UGCB group in Zurich last year. Aged in 50% new oak.
