Chateau Canon Chaigneau Cuvée 8a 2020

YEAR OF VINTAGE

WINE TYPE: Red

BOTTLE SIZE: 750 ml

Sommelier's Notes

New eagerly anticipated unoaked cuvée.


Thierry Garnaud, winemaker at Cheval Blanc for 38 vintages, wanted to try his hand at something different. A pure expression of a unique terroir, but more modern, without oak, and available as an everyday drinker, without breaking the bank.


‘8a’ is the identity in our chai of the cuve in which this wine is lovingly crafted. Made from specific parcels of slightly younger vines, it’s vinified & matured solely in concrete, and can be enjoyed sooner than it’s ‘grand vin’ sibling. Not a second wine, but very much a different cuvée.


‘The 2019 Cuve 8A has a well-defined, taut and linear bouquet, a light marine influence coming through with time. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy black fruit, a slightly granular texture, good grip, and black pepper and graphite notes toward the finish. A fascinating and quite delicious 2019.’
