Over het wijnhuis Château Canon is een 1er Grand Cru Classé ‘B’ van Saint-Émilion. In 1996 werd het château overgenomen door Alain en Gerard Wertheimer, de eigenaren van het luxe merk Chanel. Voor het maken van de wijn is Nicolas Audebert verantwoordelijk, een bekende wijnmaker in Bordeaux - hij maakt ook de wijnen op Château Rauzan-Ségla en werkte eerder voor Champagne-huis Krug.

Awards "The 2022 Croix Canon has turned out beautifully, mingling aromas of dark berries and cherries with hints of orange rind and petals. Medium to full-bodied, succulent and seamless, with a rich core of fruit, lively acids and a long, aromatic finish, it will offer a broad drinking window. As I've written before, recent vintages of this cuvée have confirmed its status as one of Bordeaux's finest second labels (though since it derives from dedicated holdings below Berliquet, it's not a "second wine" in the strict sense)." - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

"Lightly reductive with a floral touch to the ripe but fresh fruit and a touch of white pepper. Quite refined. Nicely chewy with medium to full body and a compact finish of good length. Needs some time in bottle. Drink from 2027." - James Suckling

"59% Cabernet Franc, 41% Merlot – unusually high in the former but they have just grubbed up a big parcel of Merlot. 30% new oak including three tuns. Cask sample. Deep crimson. Edgy. Nervy nose. For Cab Franc fans. Clean and fresh, slightly inky on the dry finish. (JR)" - Jancis Robinson

"The 2022 Croix Canon presents an intense, beautifully defined and initially mineral-driven bouquet featuring subtle floral scents. There is real energy here. The medium-bodied palate is almost brittle in texture, featuring crushed stone on the entry. It’s tensile on the crunchy, very pure finish that embodies Cabernet Franc. This is excellent." - Vinous

"Smoke, liquorice, charred tobacco, coffee and mocha notes on the nose. Ripe and softly fleshy on the palate, this has density and chew but no overt heaviness, remains light and tight with grip to the super fine but supportive tannins that fill the mouth. Has a touch of austerity in the bite and clean tang to the fruit with mineral edges of liquorice and slate. There’s power here no doubt, but this has spark and energy, a liveliness with concentration of black fruit. There's juiciness and a sense of precise cleanness on the palate that is so appealing and then the focus and tension comes in at the end. It feels quite powerful with some hints of alcohol at the end but also gives a lifted mint and liquorice freshness. 3.5pH. Ageing 16-18 months , 30% new oak. Harvest 30 August - 22nd September." - Decanter
