  May 4, 2024 - Violets, roses, and lilacs kick off the floral display. You also find cherries, plums, black raspberries, cigar box, and spice, with a touch of licorice. There is a balance between the vivacity, and sweetness, a strong sense of crushed rocks, and stones, depth, and intensity. The finish is racy, in all the best ways, which is the perfect backdrop for the wine's layers of salt-tinged fruits that linger. The best part of the wine is that the fruit expresses a beautiful sense of purity, with no hard . edges. The wine blends 71% Merlot with 29% Cabernet Franc. 14% ABV. 3.41. Harvesting took place September 6 - October 4. The length of the harvest is one of the key points to the vintage, as the estate was able to stop, start, and wait for phenolic ripeness. Drink from 2030- 2060. 97-99 Pts.

  May 1, 2024 - 97-99 Punkte. Eine Nase zum Eintauchen, tief, nobel, von dunkler Frucht geprägt, ergänzt mit floralen Noten, Eukalyptus, kalkige Mineralik. Messerscharf am Gaumen, ungemein druckvoll, dabei hochelegant, viel Spannung, Konzentration, perfektes Tannin, wunderbar lang im Abgang. Einmal mehr ein grosser Canon, für eine kleine Ewigkeit gebaut. (En Primeur Tasting April 2024, 14 Alkohol)
