The brilliant 2020 Canon looks set to surpass both the 2019 and 2016 as this estate's finest wine since the post-war period, though like many of the best 2020s, it will require more patience than its 2019 counterpart. Unwinding in the glass with aromas of cherries and raspberries mingled with notions of exotic spices and iris, it's medium to full-bodied, deep and concentrated, with vibrant acids and beautifully polished, chalky tannins. Pure and precise, it concludes with a long, mouthwatering finish. This beautifully constructed wine communicates the essence of this superb limestone terroir, and it will be worth a special effort to track down and cellar.Inc. VAT£581.99 -

The 2022 Canon has turned out brilliantly in bottle. Unwinding in the glass with aromas of sweet raspberries, wild berries and cherries mingled with hints of violets, pencil shavings, black truffle and rose petals, it's full-bodied, deep and concentrated, with a dense, enveloping core of fruit underpinned by a chassis of sweet, suave tannins, concluding with a long, saline finish. This is one of the most muscular, broad-shouldered vintages of Canon in recent years, but it retains every bit of its limestone-driven identity. As I wrote two years ago, this is an estate that is delivering its greatest run of vintages since the superb Post War series that preceded the frosts of 1956, and the 2022 is indeed reminiscent of a modern day version of one of those great years.Inc.

(6x75cl) 2016A radiant gem among fine wines, Canon Chaigneau 2016 hails from the heartland of French viticulture, Bordeaux's esteemed Lalande-de-Pomerol. A meticulouly-crafted blend of 80% Merlot and 20% Cabernet Franc, it owes its elegance and structure to vines averaging 35 years of age gracing gravel over clay soils. Its birth in stainless steel vats was followed by a dexterous finessing for 13 months in French oak barrels.
An instance of Château Chaigneau's exemplary stewardship, Canon Chaigneau 2016 offers an aromatic barrage of ripe black fruits, notes of truffle, and an endearing undercurrent of minerality, culminating in a finish that lingers delicately on the palate. As it distances from its well-rounded youth, it unfurls into a richer, more complex marvel, a testament to the deft marriage of terroir and traditional vinification. Capturing the quintessence of Bordeaux's winemaking pedigree, Canon Chaigneau 2016 remains a cherished offering from Château Chaigneau.

The 2018 Croix Canon is a total pleasure to taste today. Sumptuous and inviting, with so much appeal, Croix Canon is a fabulous wine to drink now and over the next decade, maybe more. Soft curves, silky tannins and pliant fruit give the 2018 so much charm. Dark plum, spice, new leather, rose petal and mint all wrap around the juicy finish. In a word: exquisite.Inc. VAT£247.49 -

The 2020 Croix-Canon was impressive out of barrel; it contains the highest-ever percentage of Cabernet Franc due to the mildew-affected Merlot. With a well-defined bouquet, it shows beautiful clarity, dark berry fruit commingling with boysenberry and just a hint of pressed iris flower. The palate is medium-bodied with crunchy black fruit, silky smooth and a very fine thread of acidity with a refined, quite saline finish. This is a Deuxième Vin with pedigree.Inc. VAT£193.18 -

The 2012 Canon La Gaffelière possesses striking aromatic presence, beautifully layered fruit and exceptional balance. This is arguably the most refined, precise wine in Stephan von Neipperg's stable, which is not surprising given the blend of equal parts Merlot and Cabernet Franc. Rose petal, mint and generous red stone fruits meld into the creamy yet understated finish. This is a striking 2012 that speaks to finesse.Inc. VAT£1,116.07 -

(6x75cl) 2016A radiant gem among fine wines, Canon Chaigneau 2016 hails from the heartland of French viticulture, Bordeaux's esteemed Lalande-de-Pomerol. A meticulouly-crafted blend of 80% Merlot and 20% Cabernet Franc, it owes its elegance and structure to vines averaging 35 years of age gracing gravel over clay soils. Its birth in stainless steel vats was followed by a dexterous finessing for 13 months in French oak barrels.
An instance of Château Chaigneau's exemplary stewardship, Canon Chaigneau 2016 offers an aromatic barrage of ripe black fruits, notes of truffle, and an endearing undercurrent of minerality, culminating in a finish that lingers delicately on the palate. As it distances from its well-rounded youth, it unfurls into a richer, more complex marvel, a testament to the deft marriage of terroir and traditional vinification. Capturing the quintessence of Bordeaux's winemaking pedigree, Canon Chaigneau 2016 remains a cherished offering from Château Chaigneau.

The 2018 Croix Canon is a total pleasure to taste today. Sumptuous and inviting, with so much appeal, Croix Canon is a fabulous wine to drink now and over the next decade, maybe more. Soft curves, silky tannins and pliant fruit give the 2018 so much charm. Dark plum, spice, new leather, rose petal and mint all wrap around the juicy finish. In a word: exquisite.In Bond£187.00 -

The 2020 Croix-Canon was impressive out of barrel; it contains the highest-ever percentage of Cabernet Franc due to the mildew-affected Merlot. With a well-defined bouquet, it shows beautiful clarity, dark berry fruit commingling with boysenberry and just a hint of pressed iris flower. The palate is medium-bodied with crunchy black fruit, silky smooth and a very fine thread of acidity with a refined, quite saline finish. This is a Deuxième Vin with pedigree.In Bond£141.00 -

This is very concentrated on the nose, with blackberry and violets. Full-bodied, with masses of tannins and bright fruit. It goes on and on and on. Exceptional. Score range: 95-100In Bond£1,167.00 -
This exciting wine adds quality and diversity to Bordeaux. Dominated by Merlot and Cabernet Franc whilst low in Cabernet Sauvignon, it is fruit forward with plenty of personality to its nose. The 2009 has flamboyance typical of this vintage with silky tannins.In Bond£1,003.00 -

Deep garnet in color, the 2010 Canon la Gaffeliere delivers classic plum preserves, boysenberries and cigar box scents with wafts of underbrush, dried roses and cinnamon stick. Full-bodied, the palate is built like a brick house with a solid line of grainy tannins and racy freshness supporting the dense fruit, finishing with compelling purity and great length.In Bond£1,136.00 -

Offers a deliciously mouthwatering range of red currant, damson plum, blackberry and loganberry fruit, spiced with hints of black tea and cinnamon and backed by a long, briary, fine-grained finish. A sleek, refined wine that should age well. Best from 2016 through 2028. -JMIn Bond£716.00 -

The 2012 Canon La Gaffelière possesses striking aromatic presence, beautifully layered fruit and exceptional balance. This is arguably the most refined, precise wine in Stephan von Neipperg's stable, which is not surprising given the blend of equal parts Merlot and Cabernet Franc. Rose petal, mint and generous red stone fruits meld into the creamy yet understated finish. This is a striking 2012 that speaks to finesse.In Bond£898.00 -
