The 2020 Canon is a blend of 68% Merlot and 32% Cabernet Franc, aging for 18 months in French oak, 50% new. It weighs in with 14.5% alcohol and a pH of 3.53. Deep garnet-purple colored, it bursts from the glass with vivacious notes of Morello cherries, redcurrant jelly, wild blueberries, and black raspberries, plus hints of powdered cinnamon, clove oil, star anise, and dusty red soil. The medium to full-bodied palate is an exercise in grace, delivering exquisitely ripe, finely pixelated tannins and bold freshness to support the tight-knit black, red and blue fruit layers, finishing long with loads of exotic spices and mineral sparks. An exhilarating triumph!

Wow. This is really exceptional with a super density of fruit that remains clear and agile. Blackberries, currants, violets, and spice, as well as some chalk and salt. It really goes on for minutes. Best of the trilogy?
