Tasted at Bordeaux Index's annual 10-Year On tasting in London.The 2006 Château Canon has a vivid, kirsch and wild strawberry bouquet with touches of orange zest and marmalade, a touch of mushroom in the background. The palate is medium-bodied with supple ripe black cherry and blackcurrant fruit, sage and melted tar. There is wonderful structure here, superb salinity, completely fulfilling the promise it demonstrated out of bottle. Perhaps yes, I was a little over-enthusiastic at that time, but after ten years it has foraged wonderful focus and vivacity. Seek this out. Tasted January 2016.
Tasted blind. Blackish ruby. Fresh and lively on the nose but on the palate it’s fully evolved. Very developed fruit without much more to give. (JR)
Blackish crimson. Smells clean and fresh (immediately after the Clos Fourtet 2006). Good vigour and directness. Tannins are there but there is ripe fruit too. Still quite embryonic with velvety tannins on the finish. A valiant attempt. (JR)
