The 2009 Château Canon is a superb expression of its unique limestone-clay terroir, where fossil-rich soils impart freshness, elegance, and remarkable aging potential to its velvety, finely textured wines. Favorable weather throughout the growing season—marked by minimal rainfall, warm days, and cool nights—allowed for slow, even ripening, resulting in small, concentrated berries of exceptional quality. This vintage reflects both power and poise, with deep color, layered richness, and a structural harmony that rewards patience and reveals the noble character of this distinguished Saint-Émilion estate.
