The 2010 Bordeaux vintage is a once in a generation event, and Canon's Premier Grand Cru Classé B earned triple 96 point scores across Wine Advocate, Jeb Dunnuck, and James Suckling. Rich, concentrated, and utterly Saint-Émilion in character, this is Merlot driven Bordeaux at its most compelling with the structure to evolve for another two decades. Canon has been one of the Right Bank's most consistent stars for years, and the 2010 is their masterpiece.

About The Producer

Château Canon, located in the prestigious Saint-Émilion appellation of Bordeaux, France, boasts a rich history dating back to the 18th century. The estate was founded by Jacques Kanon in 1760, whose name the château still bears today. Renowned for its picturesque vineyards perched on the limestone plateau, Château Canon has long been celebrated for its exceptional terroir. Over the centuries, the estate changed hands several times, each owner contributing to its legacy of excellence in winemaking. In 1951, the Wertheimer family, owners of the Chanel fashion house, acquired Château Canon, ushering in a new era of revitalization and innovation. Under their stewardship, extensive renovations were undertaken, and significant investments were made in both the vineyards and the cellar. Today, Château Canon is acclaimed for producing some of the finest wines in Saint-Émilion, consistently reflecting the elegance, complexity, and timeless quality that has defined this historic estate for over two centuries.
