Joanne Chateau Canon St Emilion Grand Cru 2011

A super effort from Chateau Canon, this property, owned by the proprietors of the haute couture house of Chanel, has turned in a stu nningly rich 2011 Canon with a full-bodied texture and surprising concentration and purity. It is a noble, intense Canon with sweet tannin, lavish concentration (atypical for the vintage), and a stunningly long finish. It should drink well for two decades, and will always be one of the major stars of the vintage. Bravo! Drink date: 2014-2034. (Robert Parker Jr.,robertparker.com,April 29, 2014)
