Wine Review: This ruby colored Merlot based wine from St. Emillion opens with an attractive black raspberry and stewed black plum bouquet with hints of graphite, jasmine, and sandalwood. On the palate, this wine is medium bodied with medium plus acidity. The mouthfeel is balanced, round, concentrated and savory. The flavor profile is a black plum and graphite blend with notes of cedar, blackberry, and black tea. The finish is dry, and its tannins stick around for a very long time. The Tasting Panel would decant this wine for over an hour and serve it with a grilled hanger steak. Enjoy – KWGTP

Winemaker Notes: Ripe and expressive, bursting with life, the wine plunges into the glass in which bright notes of red fruit, lush strawberries and raspberries, spin around each other. A few more swirls of the glass and the fruit intensifies even further, allowing aromas of morello cherry burst forth. There is this constant sensation of sapidity, so smooth and tasty. The wine palpitates. Intense and sappy, throughout the tasting it preserves this juicy character which is characteristic of the vintage. This is a generous yet precise Canon, which combines consistency with fluidity.
