CANON PRINCETEAU.

This domain, situated upon the Southern hill side of Canon, is per- fectly planted and very favourably exposed. During the Internation- al Exhibition of 1855, the Wines of Canon obtained a marked pre- ference by the Lord Mayor of the City of London and the gentle- men of distinction of his Company, on occa- sion of a Banquet offer- ed to him by the Mu- nicipality of Paris.

CHEAU. LAVALADE. This property is one of the distinguished growths of the "Côtes de Fronsac" wine plot, the productions of which justly enjoy a reputation not sur- passed by that of the excellent wines of the Coteau of Canon.

The situation of this vineyard, planted on calcareous soil, and exposed to the beams of the rising sun, makes it one of the best growths of the Haut Fronsadais.

CHEAU. DE PONTUS.

Is situated in the immediate vicinity of Chateau Lavalade. A rich modern mansion, surrounded by a splendid park, has re- placed the old castle. Its production is more than 100 tonneaux.

These wines are classified in the first Fronsac, and have long been renowned in Holland for their quality, being rich, full, soft, and having a fine bouquet.

CHEAU.

LA CONSEILLANTE.

This vineyard is situated partly in the district of St. Emi- lion and that of Po- merol, and the wine unites the appreciated qualities of the two characters.

With the richness of St. Emilion they have the delicacy and bouquet of Pomerol; this favourable union makes it a perfect wine.

The productions of these four growths are by their sound quality very fit for Export to the most distant countries, and can well support the severity of the extremest

climates
