Showing its age in the color, the developing nose offers wet earth, espresso and red fruits. The wine is medium bodied,, with barely a tannic edge remaining to the sweet cherries on the palate. Just a few more years will add even more softness and complexity to the wine. The wine was made from blending 70% Cabernet Sauvignon, 28% Merlot and 2% Cabernet Franc.

Elegant Margaux with ripeness and lightness along with lifted floral and red berry fruits. A beautiful, aromatic wine with finesse and balance. Freshness in the fruit is impressive.

Evolved color, medium intensity. Subtle nose, with ripe and creamy fruit, "blonde" oak. Tender, airy palate, with fine tannins and a perfumed finish. Smooth and delicate ensemble, lacking a bit of punch due to hail. To be drunk chilled during summer. Blend: 70% Cabernet Sauvignon, 28% Merlot, 2% Cabernet Franc.

Château Château Brane Cantenac
Château Brane Cantenac
Château Brane Cantenac

Château Brane-Cantenac is one of the great names of the Margaux appellation, classified as a Second Grand Cru Classé in the official 1855 classification. Located on the gravelly plateau of Cantenac, in the heart of the Médoc, this wine embodies the elegance, aromatic precision and tannic finesse characteristic of the great wines of Margaux.

The history of the estate dates back to the 18th century, but its modern identity was established in the early 19th century when Baron Jacques-Maxime de Brane acquired the property and gave it his name. Nicknamed at the time the "Napoleon of the vines," he helped elevate the cru among the references of the Médoc. For several generations, the Lurton family has managed the estate, pursuing a constant quest for precision and parcel expression.

The vineyard rests on hillsides of deep gravel mixed with sand and clay, a terroir particularly favorable to Cabernet Sauvignon, the majority grape variety in the blend. This composition gives the wines of Château Brane-Cantenac a straight structure, refined aromatic intensity and a remarkable aging potential.

Vintages such as Château Brane-Cantenac 1989, Château Brane-Cantenac 2000, Château Brane-Cantenac 2005, Château Brane-Cantenac 2009, Château Brane-Cantenac 2016 or Château Brane-Cantenac 2020 illustrate the qualitative consistency of the cru and its essential status among the collectible wines of Margaux.
