2011 - Grand Vin Château Canon Chaigneau








2011 - Grand Vin Château Canon Chaigneau
Summer in spring, autumn in summer and spring in autumn. What’s known as a winemaker’s vintage. And luckily we have one of the best. That coupled with excellent sorting and a well timed harvest lead to a wine that is utterly seductive right now. Thierry Garnaud’s 17th vintage with us, and his 30th at Cheval Blanc.
"A contemplative wine, now blending fruit with subtle and delicate aromas of scented oak and tobacco as it approaches its peak. An opportunity to drink the pinnacle of fine, elegant, graceful Lalande-de-Pomerol."
A Unique Terroir
The Néac plateau. One of the finest wines of the appellation, and one of the best value wines in France - medium bodied, not over extracted, complex, suave & extremely drinkable, typically with notes of truffle, black fruits, spice and cacao.
A Legendary Winemaker
Thierry Garnaud was maître de chai at Cheval Blanc from 1988 – 2018, responsible for such 100 Point Legends as the 1990, '98, 2000, '03, '05, '06, '08, '10, '15 & 2016.
