A big improvement over recent efforts from this famous cru on the hillsides outside medieval St.-Emilion, Canon's 2000 is a dark ruby-colored, elegant, medium-bodied effort displaying notions of flowers, minerals, earth, black cherries, and currants. It possesses excellent concentration, purity, and balance. Moderate tannin in the finish suggests some cellaring is required. Anticipated maturity: 2005-2020.
