Note di degustazione
A blend of 89% Cabernet Franc and 11% Merlot that is produced from vines on one of the highest limestone plateaus of the appellation, the 2020 Canon Pécresse reveals scents of spring flowers, graphite, cassis, blueberry and a touch of spices with aeration in the glass. On the palate, this wine is medium to full-bodied, lively and fresh, with racy acidity and a long, saline, penetrating finish. It will offer a broad drinking window.

Readers looking for a pure, mineral-laced Right Bank in the vintage will love the 2020 Château Canon Pecresse, which is a blend of 85% Merlot and 15% Cabernet Franc from the upper limestone plateau that was raised in just one-third new French oak. It has a great nose of ripe raspberries, spring flowers, sappy herbs, and a salty, chalky mineral character that emerges more on the palate. Medium-bodied, focused, and straight, with ripe tannins, it's very much in the classic, balanced, yet impressive style of the vintage. It will keep for a solid decade.
The 2020 Canon Pécresse was showing a bit of reduction on the nose that made it difficult to read. The palate is medium-bodied with rounded tannins, fine backbone, quite solid with plenty of substance, though it does miss a bit of finesse on the finish.
The 2020 Canon Pécresse is a rich, heady Fronsac. It offers up an exotic mix of blackberry jam, cloves, licorice, menthol and chocolate. Big, bold and explosive, Canon Pécresse is not exactly subtle, but it sure is tasty.
