Collection: Ch Canon
Nested in the Saint Emilion limestone plateau, Ch. Canon is an emblematic estate that benefits from an outstanding terroir, which entitled it to Premier Grand Crus Classe status in 1954. The Chateau overlooks a gentle slope where vines have been grown for thousands of years. The vineyard is surrounded by walls that stretch as far as the Saint Emilion village. The enthusiastic winemaking team does their utmost to reflect Canon's superb terroir and produce wines of great finesse and complexity. In keeping with the House of Chanel, who have owned the chateau since 1996, Ch. Canon epitomises a style that is timeless, elegant and always fashionable.
