  • Goedhuis Waddesdon, April 2026, Score: 95-97

    Ch Canon’s famed limestone plateau enabled the vines to progress as in a more normal year during the dry summer of 2025. Hence yields were a healthy 40hl/ha and this surely contributes to how comfortable the wine feels when tasting. A lifted fragrant herbal scent, with bright fresh red berry undertones. There is a brilliance and clarity to the fruit, tightly knit, all about control and precision. The central core gives density and weight, and the sweet finish allows all its delicious floral flavours to fan out, giving huge pleasure. Poised, complex and classy.

  • Neal Martin, May 2026, Score: 96-98

    The 2025 Canon was picked between August 28 and September 18 at 40 hl/ha. This is very pure and refined on the nose, with wonderful delineation, not as flattering as, say, the 2015 or 2019 at this stage, yet very focused and mineral-driven. The palate is medium-bodied with filigree tannins, quite sapid, with a pinch of cracked black pepper. Like its "sister", Berliquet, the limestone terroir comes through and seems to "tingle" on the finish. Maybe not a crowd-pleaser, but I like its uncompromising nature that reflects its place of birth. Drink 2032-2055

  • Wine Advocate, April 2026, Score: 96-99

    A blend of 76% Merlot and 24% Cabernet Franc, the 2025 Canon continues this property's brilliant decade-long run of exceptional wines. Unwinding in the glass with a complex bouquet of cherries and raspberries mingled with hints of exotic spices, licorice and petals, it's medium- to full-bodied, suave and concentrated, with a bright spine of acidity and a long, penetrating finish. Harvest stretched from August 28 to September 18.

  • Antonio Galloni, April 2026, Score: 98-100

    The 2025 Canon is a total stunner. Deep and sumptuous in the glass, it offers tons of the vintage's textural intensity along with all the vibrant, saline energy that is such a signature here. Dark-fleshed fruit, mocha, new leather, herbs and dried flowers build gradually in the glass, leading to a huge, dramatic finish laced with hints of blood orange, pomegranate and chalk. The interplay of finesse and power is dazzling. Tasted two times. Drink 2035-2065.

  • Jancis Robinson, May 2026, Score: 17.5/20

    76% Merlot, 24% Cabernet Franc. Cask sample. Refined floral bouquet. Tannins silky and so refined. Smooth texture that belies the power behind. Long, clean finish. Fresh and harmonious. Drink 2032-2050

    An impressive Canon, seductive limestone character that showcases what was possible in the vintage. Slate, chalk and pumice stone, all wrapped up in bright and vivid iris flowers, push and pull momentum through the palate where things stop, take a breath, then kick off again with a new layer of nuanced understated toasted spice and cool blue fruits. Deft, skilful, rooted in place. 40hl/h yield. Tasted twice. Nicolas Audebert director. Thomas Duclos consultant. 3.5ph.

Chateau Canon is located on St Emilions celebrated limestone plateau, and known for producing some of the appelations age worthy and elegant wines. It has enjoyed a modern renaissance since being acquired in 1996 by Chanel, who also own Chateau Rauzan Segla and Chateau Berliquet. With significant investment in the vineyards and winery, Canon has soared in both quality and demand. Its unique walled Merlot vineyard, worked only by horse and hand-harvested for the Grand Vin, sits at the entrance to Saint-Émilion village, while the rest of its 18 hectares are planted with Merlot and Cabernet Franc on a mix of plateau limestone and clay. Characteristically, Canon demands cellaring throughout its youth, rewarding patience with the sumptuous, silky depth only the finest Saint-Émilions can deliver.Read less

Region

St Emilion

South of Pomerol lies the medieval, perched village of St Emilion. Surrounding St Emilion are vines that produce round, rich and often hedonistic wines. Despite a myriad of soil types, two main ones dominate - the gravelly, limestone slopes that delve down to the valley from the plateau and the valley itself which is comprised of limestone, gravel, clay and sand. Despite St Emilion's popularity today, it was not until the 1980s to early 1990s that attention was brought to this region. Robert Parker, the famous wine critic, began reviewing their Merlot-dominated wines and giving them hefty scores. The rest is history as they say. Similar to the Médoc, there is a classification system in place which dates from 1955 and outlines several levels of quality. These include its regional appellation of St Emilion, St Emilion Grand Cru, St Emilion Grand Cru Classé and St Emilion Premier Grand Cru Classé, which is further divided into "A" (Ausone and Cheval Blanc) and "B" (including Angélus, Canon, Figeac and a handful of others). To ensure better accuracy, the classification is redone every 10 years enabling certain châteaux to be upgraded or downgraded depending on on the quality of their more recent vintages.
