Croix Canon 2020

Bordeaux - Saint-Émilion - 2nd Wine - Red Wine -

Croix Canon 2020 is much more than a second wine; it is a privileged gateway to the excellence of Château Canon, a Premier Grand Cru Classé. Owned by the Chanel House, this wine benefits from the same meticulous craftsmanship as its elder sibling. The 2020 vintage, solar and radiant, is tempered here by the legendary freshness of the Saint-Émilion limestone plateau. It offers an immediate, juicy, and refined expression, designed for wine lovers seeking a great Bordeaux that is accessible.

Tasting Notes

  • Appearance: Deep ruby with vibrant violet highlights, signaling beautiful youth.
  • Nose: Bouquet of ripe fruit (black cherry, raspberry), floral notes (violet), and a chalky mineral touch. Fine nuances of spices and cedar.
  • Palate: Smooth and caressing with a creamy texture. Perfect balance between fruit density and saline tension. Long and airy finish.

Terroir & Blend

Sourced from the famous limestone plateau, the blend is dominated by Merlot (65%) for roundness, complemented by Cabernet Franc (35%) which brings structure and elegance.

Vinification & Aging

Gentle vinification by gravity. Aged for 18 months in French oak barrels (approx. 30% new oak) to support the fruit without masking it.

Food & Wine Pairing

This Saint-Émilion will perfectly enhance a confit lamb shoulder, duck breast with cherries, or a porcini mushroom risotto.

The Advice from 12bouteilles.com:

Croix Canon 2020 is a wine of immediate pleasure with an aging potential of 10-12 years. To enjoy it today, we recommend decanting it for 2 hours before serving.
