"The quality of the wines of Cantenac Brown is no accident: the predominantly gravelly slope in the village of Cantenac produces some of the best wines in the world and is location of many Crus Classés of Margaux. The soils, poor and generous at the same time, added to deep rooted vines and the vintners’ know-how lead to fine, elegant and perfectly balanced wines. The team of Château Cantenac Brown is aware of such a gift and looks continuing creating finest quality wines. Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc produce subtle wines with an intense bouquet, well-suited for laying down. Merlot makes up the remainder of the vines and contributes to colour, richness and roundness." —winemaker Blend: 65% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot, 5% Cabernet Franc |
Critic' Notes | |||
"Beautiful dusty tannins permeate this ripe wine. It has a smooth and rich texture, with bright blackberry flavors and a refreshing, vibrant close." —Roger Voss, Wine Enthusiast Magazine "The 2015 Cantenac Brown is superb. Translucent, weightless and totally finessed, the 2015 offers outstanding purity and exceptional overall balance. Sweet plum, tobacco, cedar, licorice and new leather are some of the many nuances that take shape in the glass, but it is the wine's purity that is most impressive. Hints of lavender, iron and smoke add shades of nuance on the tightly wound finish. Over the two weeks I followed it, the Grand Vin put on considerable depth and power. It will be interesting to see where things end up here, but the 2015 was superb all three times I tasted it. Cantenac Brown is one of the great still affordable wines of the year. Don't miss it." —Antonio Galloni, Vinous "Very structured and muscular with black currant, chewy tannins and a flavorful finish. Full body. Yet polished and intriguing." —JamesSuckling.com |
