Our Unique Terroir
Château Canon Chaigneau is located in the eastern part of the Lalande de Pomerol appellation on the Néac plateau, and just to the north of the Pomerol Plateau, where the likes of Petrus, Lafleur, la Conseillante and Clinet can be found.
Indeed, the Romans recognised the greatness of our terroir, and winemaking began here almost 2000 years ago....
Our Legendary Winemaker
Thierry Garnaud is responsible for such 100 Point Legends as the '90, '98, '00, '03, '05, '06, '08, '10, '15 & '16. His savoir-faire and talent is undisputed!
Thierry crafts the Grand Vin and our newer, unoaked Cuve 8a with the same passion he had at Cheval Blanc. The wines share the same ‘iron fist in a velvet glove’ structure.
His methods are clearly his own; but the premise is one of letting the vines and the grapes do the talking, with minimal intervention, and according to traditional methods.
Our Radiant Family
London born wine merchant Romik Arconian & his partner, Marine Fontana- a trained viticulturalist - have taken over the vineyard. We are supported by our two young children, with a few close friends as investors.
Understanding the importance of that long legacy, we are delighted to have been able to maintain close ties with the previous owners - the Marin Family - who have owned & operated the estate since the 60's, and remain shareholders to this day. Indeed, Louis Marin, stayed on as ‘Chef de Culture’; a role he has undertaken for almost 40 years.
