Canon 1990, a red wine from the esteemed Saint-Émilion Grand Cru Classé in Bordeaux, showcases a Merlot-dominant blend with 13.5% alcohol derived from a notably warm vintage. The vineyard, renowned for its clay and limestone soils, benefited from ideal ripening conditions, allowing the grapes to achieve a robust, opulent character. This vintage exhibits a complex profile of black cherries, liquorice, and dried herbs, evolving over time to reveal layers of forest floor and truffle. The plush texture reflects the traditional winemaking style of Château Canon, established in the 18th century, which prioritises elegance and longevity in its wines.
