March 3, 2024 - 7/11, good cork. Decanted and immediately served.
Medium/deep ruby core, pale ruby/garnet rim. This is initially quite red fruited, flashes of plum, some earth, tea and chalky mineral. Medium bodied, plum and some darker fruit, spice, creamy edge, soft tannins - this is elegant and fine - fresh/vibrant acidity, lovely good length harmonious finish. Drinking beautifully, no hurry. -

February 29, 2024 - Vinous Icons of Bordeaux with Neal Martin (Legacy Records, New York City): Much more brawny and robust than the more feminine 2016. More dark and brooding in profile. Very nice complexity.

December 16, 2023 - From magnum. Over dinner, no formal notes. Very open and expressive on the nose, good acidity and fruit on the palate. Elegant and rather subtle. Nice tannic bite towards the finish. Quite long. 92-94?

February 18, 2023 - Chaeau Canon 2001
シャトーとしては良い年ではないのかもしれない。
(一般的には) ピークアウトして3～5年後くらいの状況に思えるが、自分はこれぐらいの熟熟状態が好き。
本来は「剛健なフルボディ」らしいのだが、本年はライト寄りのミディアムボディでむしろ繊細さを感じる。
枯れた赤系果実のニュアンスやキノコ系出汁感に加え、わずかに感じるメロンや胡瓜の様な青さは、このシャトーの特徴なのか。
他のヴィンテージも是非飲みたい。
Maybe not a good year for the chateau.
It seems (in general) to be in a 3-5 year situation after peaking out, but I like it at this ripe state of maturity.
It is supposed to be "rigid and full-bodied," but this year it is light to medium-bodied and rather delicate.
The nuance of withered red fruits, mushroom soupiness, and a slight greenness like melon and cucumber are the characteristics of this chateau.
I would love to drink other vintages.
