Robert Parker – The Wine Advocate – 90-92/100
The 2020 Croix Canon is a blend of 65% Merlot and 35% Cabernet Franc, aging for 18 months in French oak, 30% new. It weighs in with 14.5% alcohol and a pH of 3.53. Deep garnet-purple colored, it drifts out of the glass with alluring scents of plum preserves, blueberry pie and mulberries, plus touches of potpourri, Chinese five spice and fallen leaves. The medium to full-bodied palate is chock-full of juicy black and blue fruits, supported by plush tannins and oodles of freshness, finishing long and spicy.
Vinous – Antonio Galloni – 89-91/100
The 2020 Croix Canon is bright and perfumed right out of the bottle.
There’s not a ton of structure here, but then again, this is a second wine.
Crushed red berries, mint, rose petal, cedar and a touch of blood orange
give the 2020 lovely complexity. This is very nicely done. I expect it will be a
lovely mid-term drinker.
