Wine Description

The Château Canon 2022 is a poised and elegant blend dominated by Merlot with Cabernet Franc. In the glass, it reveals a deep ruby hue. Aromas unfold gracefully, offering layers of red and black cherries, fresh violets, crushed stones, and subtle hints of cedar. On the palate, it is medium to full-bodied, with a seamless texture and bright acidity that supports finely woven tannins. Notes of ripe plum, graphite, and gentle spice lead to a long, mineral-driven finish.
