Anmeldelser af Chateau Canon St. Emilion 1. Grand Cru Classé B 2021

96-98/100 VV Wine 
"Luminous ruby. The nose is super complex, deep, slightly smoky, floral notes, violets, chalky minerals, a fascinating, beguiling scent. The start is soft, round and shows creaminess, then becomes firmer, pressure builds up in the middle of the palate, the tannins are of the highest quality, the wine has exceptional class, a top structure and a long, fruity-fresh finish with floral rear aromas. Combining finesse and elegance, a grandiose Saint-Emilion carved in stone."

97/100 Markus Del Monego, Master of Wine
"Very refined style with full-bodied character, excellent length and tension, fine and flavourful finish with hints og minerality. A very classic style."

"A wine full of finesse and class with fantastic length and polish. Medium to full body with ultra-fine tannins that run endlessly down the length of the wine. Blackberry, graphite and spice. Agile and weightless."

96/100 Jane Anson
"Gorgeous bright plum colour with violet reflections. The epitome of careful, precise, well-spliced winemaking. Sibling estate Berliquet has perhaps more immediate charm, because there is more power running through it, but this is just elegance and finesse personified. Red cherry, raspberry, blueberry, blackberry, slate, saffron, oyster shell, they have teased out layers of complexity that were not easy to find in the vintage, and there is length also, with pummice stone salinity scraping across the palate. It's subtle, and it's not at the heights of a 2019 Canon, but this will not be out of place in a vertical of the estate. Tasted twice. 50% new oak, 40hl/h yield, harvest September 16 to October 8. Thomas Duclos consultant."

95-97/100 Vinous - Antonio Galloni
"Dramatic, rich and imposing, the 2021 Canon is shaping up to be one of the wines of the vintage. Sculpted red purplish fruit, rose petal, lavender, sage and crushed rocks all race out of the glass. A heady, vertical wine, Canon is endowed with tremendous concentration and class. The aromatics alone are beguiling, but it is the wine's balance that impresses most. Tasted three times. This is such an elegant and regal wine."

"Dark chocolate, perfume, violets, wild flowers and bramble berries on the nose, so much going on aromatically. Lovely succulence straight away, the bright acidity giving a mouthwatering effect and really delivering in terms of vibrant and lively fruit forwardness but with these lovely edges of graphite, slate, bitter chocolate, cream and salinity. So elegant and so refined as well as super stylish. I also love the cooling menthol Cabernet aspects you get all the way through and on the long finish. This has real class, but also an effortless quality to it that is so remarkable. One of the most memorable wines of the vintage! 3.37pH. Both Canon, Rauzan-Segla and Berliquet are excellent achievements this year."

95-96/100 Andrew Caillard
"Medium-deep crimson. Attractive red cherry, dark plum, inky/graphite aromas with some herb garden notes. Refined and well balanced wine with red cherry, dark plum fruits, fine slinky tannins, lovely mid-palate richness and integrated savoury oak. Very decent wine for this vintage. 71% merlot, 29% cabernet franc. 16–18 months in 50% new oak."

95-96/100 Vert de Vin Magazine
"The nose is fruity, elegant and offers freshness (in subtlety), complexity, a fine intensity. It reveals notes of luscious cherry, lily and slight notes of blueberry, juicy/fresh blackcurrant associated with slight touches of lilac, small fresh/juicy purple plums as well as delicate hints of pepper. The palate is fruity and offers juiciness, a nice tangy structure, minerality, good definition, indulgence, freshness, complexity, a nice silky/juicy quality, a fine/discreetly tight grain, lusciousness. energy, a certain fullness, a fine richness/generosity of the Merlot, fullness. On the palate this wine expresses notes of fresh/juicy cherry, crushed raspberry and slight hints of violet associated with touches of juicy/fresh blackcurrant, small blue plum as well as a subtle hint of fresh lily/fresh flowers, a discreet hint of bergamot, sweet spices, with a delicate hint of vanilla and chocolate. Good length. A little chewiness and greediness on the finish/persistence."

94-96/100 Alexandre Ma
"Although Canon 2021 has a softer and more delicate floral and fruity aromas, its essential elegance still remains. I love its milk-liked palate and silky tannins. The classic chalky texture brought by limestone plateau skillfully compensates for the lack of concentration in this vintage. The mild sense of saltiness on the finish warms up the whole body. To me, Canon 2021 is like an old black-and-white photo that only takes two simple colors to interpret “reservedness and luxury”.

94-96/100 Jeff Leve, The Wine Cellar Insider
"The nose stands out with its nuances of flowers, crushed stones, spearmint, cigar wrapper, red plums, fresh cherries, herbs, and a touch of fennel. The wine is all about its freshness, purity, energy and elegant nature, finishing with silky tannins with their trademark touch of salt, mint leaf, and sweet, vibrant red berries. The wine blends 71% Merlot with 29% Cabernet Franc, 13.5% ABV. The harvest took place September 16 - October 6. Drink from 2026-2055"

94-96/100 Robert Parker
"A brilliant wine in the making, the 2021 Canon offers up aromas of cherries, wild berries, licorice, sweet soil tones, raw cocoa, Indian spices and rose petals. Medium to full-bodied, layered and multidimensional, it's immensely refined and seamless, with a lively spine of acidity, ripe tannins and a long, penetrating, intensely saline finish. This beautifully balanced Canon is one of the classiest, most complete wines of the Right Bank in this vintage. Tasted four times."
