The Wine Advocate

"The 2016 Canon makes it a double slam-dunk for head winemaker Nicolas Audebert and his team, as it is the second of two ethereal wines that will put the estate right at the top of the Saint Emilion tree. This year is a blend of 74% Merlot and 26% Cabernet Franc picked from 22 September until 10 October at 45 hectoliters per hectare. It delivers 14.02% alcohol and an IPT of 65. Matured in 65% new oak, it has a compelling bouquet with intense black cherry and blueberry fruit, a tincture of oyster shell, all with exquisite definition. The palate is medium-bodied with filigree tannin, and again, there is stunning, almost ineffable precision. It is attired in a seamless texture with real density yet weightlessness on the finish. The persistence on the aftertaste is extraordinary. I composed this entire tasting note after spitting out the wine, but I can still feel my mouth tingling now. The 2015 was magnificent, but could this 2016 surpass that? "The 2016 is more Canon in style, more classic," commented Nicolas, and he could be right, although intuition tells me that the 2015 might be a hair's breadth better. I would not refuse either if they were opened before me."

Decanter Magazine

"This vintage delivers a beautiful, classic style of Canon that is right at the top of what St-Émilion can offer. Compact and dense without being hard, it is finely structured both in terms of the texture of the cassis and blackberry fruits and in the shape of the tannins. It demonstrates a clear minerality and a feather-brushing of violet notes. This is less obviously sexy than 2015, but is a wine that offers a masterclass in what limestone terroir can convey - salinity, succulence, hints of austerity and reserves of power. I retasted it a few times, and the main take away of what to expect is layers of flavour and huge persistency. The details of how they worked the vintage are an added bonus to understanding how they achieved this result. When it started getting hot and dry, they left all green cover on the vines, and did no green harvesting except tidying up in September. The result was loading the vines to avoid over-concentration. 72% Merlot and 28% Cabernet Franc, with the final blend aged in 70% new oak. 3.6pH. Drinking Window 2027 - 2050"

"Lively dark crimson. Very smart and complex on the nose - distinctively different. Really focused and rich but not sweet. Real lift and drive. So complete! Opulent on the nose but nothing remotely simple and sweet. Throbs with excitement."

Jeff Leve

"Inkjet black purple in color, you have depth, length and concentration. There is a waterfall of flawlessly ripe fruit and a quarry of crushed rocks with licorice and flowers. This is a wealthy wine, infused with lushness, opulence, density and intensity. The finish lingers, owing to the layers of ripe fruit and glycerin. The wine was made from a blend of 75% Merlot and 25% Cabernet Franc, reaching 14.2% alcohol with a pH of 3.6."

Jean-Marc Quarin

"Le meilleur jamais fait ! Couleur intense, belle et profonde. Nez intense, particulièrement fruité, pur, noble, légèrement fumé, crémeux, puissant et profond. Bouche si grasse, si complexe, si parfumée, si noble au toucher, si profonde en finale, si persistante, si incrachable. Forte note plaisir. Fabuleux ! Alcool : 14° versus 15° pour le 2015. pH : 3,6 dans la moyenne. IPT : 65 dans la moyenne haute. Assemblage : 76 % merlot, 24 % cabernet franc. Rendement : 45 hl/ha."

Revue du Vin de France

"74% merlot, 26% cabernet franc. Ce millésime magnifie sa recherche de l'élégance ultime: accroche tannique longiligne de haute précision et de grand naturel, raffinement aromatique subtilement mentholé. Plus réservé que le rayonnant 2015, mais encore plus profond et pénétrant."

"Barrel Sample. A powerful, concentrated and superripe wine, this is major. The wine's juicy black-plum fruit balances its dark tannins and density. You can sense the impressive future for this structured wine."

"Seidenes, elegantes, frisches Bouquet, Himbeeren, Erdbeeren, Minze, Pralinen. Ausgewogener, dichtverwobener, frischer Gaumen mit dichter, feiner Frucht, süsser, vielfältiger Aromatik, feingliedriger Struktur, viel feinem Tannin, sehr langer, duftiger Abgang. Kann noch zulegen."

Wine Spectator

"Vivacious and integrated already, with plum, raspberry and cassis notes matched by a bright floral hint and a flash of rooibos tea. Refined minerality through the finish. Ample depth, but it is defined by its purity and drive.—J.M."

"Dans la lignée du mythique 1955, avec un grain calcaire vêtu de satin parfaitement bien étiré et une finale saline et aérienne du meilleur effet. On est dans le tannin bien infusé."

VINOUS

"The 2016 Canon is a wine of pure sophistication and polish. A rush of red cherry, plum, mint, rose petal and blood orange gives the 2016 its sexy, racy personality. Underlying veins of minerality and salinity provide finesse and persistence. In 2016, Canon is pure class. It doesn't reach the stratospheric level of the 2015, but that is too much to ask in a vintage that presented significant challenges in the vineyard. Tasted four times."

"The 2016 Canon is soft, open-knit and caressing, with lovely depth to match its mid-weight personality. Sweet tobacco, mint, dried flowers and blood orange add freshness to a core of sweet red cherry fruit. A wine of subtlety and class, the 2016 has quite a bit to say, but speaks in hushed tones. The 2016 is bright and focused. It will also need a number of years to come together, as it is quite reticent today. In some tastings, Canon has been a bit austere, while in other moments it has been a bit juicier and forward. But what I have not seen in any of my three tastings so far is that extra dimension of energy that lifts the finest vintages into the realm of the truly exciting."

"The 2016 Canon has the unenviable task of following the astonishing 2015, and it does a damn good job, even if it doesn’t reach the same ethereal heights. There is a pleasing strictness and poise on the nose; this is less immediate than the 2015, yet intellectual, a Canon that expresses its terroir rather than tons of fruit. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannin, a fine bead of acidity, a smooth texture and a slightly savory but persistent finish, which feels a little plusher than the 2015, implying that this might drink a little earlier. But there is unquestionably immense breeding locked into this rejuvenated Saint-Émilion, which is now firmly ensconced among the top-flight Right Banks."

Yves Beck

"Pourpre violacé. Bouquet intense, complexe, fruité et épicé. Bois de réglisse, mûres, cerises noires, pain d’épices et d’agréables ainsi que rafraîchissantes notes de menthe. A l’attaque le vin est suave et soyeux. Le corps a de l’ampleur, du jus et une très belle intensité aromatique. Les tannins se révèlent lentement en fin de bouche. Ils sont fins, puissants et en symbiose avec la structure. Cette dernière est vive et confère du fruit à l’ensemble du palais, jusqu’en fin de bouche. Finale fruitée et persistante. Grande réussite."
