Information on the vintage 1947 red Bordeaux : The second of the three great great post-war vintages. On the whole, exceptionally rich almost voluptuous wines.

Robert PARKER - The Wine Advocate
It has a deep color, not far from the 1964 with a thin tawny rim. Fortunately here the nose was not tainted and delivers a captivating small armada of scents: dried redcurrant, Christmas cake, dried fig, fresh mint and rosemary—probably one of the most complex aromatics that I have found on the 1947. The palate is medium-bodied with bitter cherry and a touch of soy on the entry. Stylistically it is actually more like a 1949. It has a fine backbone, less fleshy and corpulent than its peers and feels more masculine. But there is also great depth here and residual energy, fanning out gently with notes of leather, sage and dried blood, almost ferrous and Pomerol-like on the finish. If you are lucky and escape the dreaded TCA-affected batch of bottles, you are in for a treat, although do not decant this wine as it does fade in the glass.

The Château Canon was one of the first castles of Bordeaux, where the vines was a main square.
