WINEMAKER NOTES
2009 Chateau Canon – Limestone-Driven Saint Emilion Grand Cru
The 2009 Chateau Canon represents a pivotal expression of Saint Emilion, showcasing the estate’s limestone plateau terroir in one of Bordeaux’s most celebrated modern vintages. Situated on elevated, well-drained soils just outside the village, Chateau Canon consistently delivers wines defined by structure, clarity, and restrained power.
Tasting Notes
The bouquet reveals ripe black cherry, plum, graphite, and subtle floral notes. On the palate, the wine is generous yet composed, offering layers of dark fruit framed by fine, chalky tannins. Mineral tension carries through the mid-palate, while notes of cocoa and spice emerge on the long, balanced finish. Despite its richness, the wine retains freshness and precision.
Winemaking & Vineyard Details
The blend is led by Merlot with a significant portion of Cabernet Franc, sourced from old vines planted on deep limestone and clay-limestone soils. Fermentation is handled with careful extraction, followed by aging in French oak barrels to build texture without masking site expression. The warm, dry 2009 growing season delivered fully ripe fruit with excellent balance.
Investment & Collectibility
The 2009 vintage is widely regarded as one of the benchmarks of the decade in Bordeaux, and Chateau Canon stands among its most consistent performers. With strong critical recognition and a proven aging curve, this wine remains a compelling option for collectors focused on Right Bank classics.
Vintage Insights & Accolades
The 2009 Bordeaux vintage produced wines of richness and harmony, driven by ideal ripening conditions. At Canon, these elements translated into a Grand Cru with both immediate appeal and long-term cellaring potential.
