Jancis Robinson January - 2019
Jancis Robinson
Shiny deep crimson. Pretty smart and intense on the nose. Rather subtle and glorious. Very difficult to spit because it’s so suave and layered. Good freshness and so active under the aroma. Meaty but not at all reduced. Complete.

Already incredible to drink, the wine is concentrated, rich, sensuous, and packed with layers of fruit that does not quit. Even though it is early days, it is difficult not to be seduced by the complex aromatics and if that does not grab you, the velvet-textured opulence in the finish will. If you prefer exuberant, youthful fruits, with decadent textures, and a finish packed with fruit and glycerin, try a bottle now, If you desire more secondary notes, wait a few more years. Either way, this is a superb wine and a clear candidate for the best vintage of Brane Cantenac ever produced! Drink from 2024-2055.

Jean-Marc Quarin September - 2023
Jean-Marc Quarin
Dark, intense and slightly evolved color. Very aromatic nose, with pure, ripe and smooth fruit. Full on the attack, mellow in the mid-palate, with class in the texture and a very beautiful ascent between the middle and the finish, the wine evolves long, licorice-like and deep. This is superb and the good expression of this vintage compared to the previous day.

What a fragrance, goosebumps guaranteed, aromatically complex, with ripe red and dark berries, blonde tobacco, floral notes, a poem. On the palate balanced and powerful, a mouthful of wine, a mouthful of elegance, sensational tannins, delicate fruit, great length. Absolute top class. 2024 to 2045

Jeannie Cho Lee May - 2016
Jeannie Cho Lee
Subtle, elegant, quietly powerful, this is one of the best Brane-Cantenacs I have tasted over the past decade. The wine is seamless, with lovely violet, cedar and cassis flavors and silky, dense tannins. A beautiful wine that has both restraint and power.

Wine Enthusiast January - 2018
Wine Enthusiast
Rich, fruity and with great potential, this ripe wine is also dense with firm tannins. Its juicy fruits are a part of a package with the concentrated tannins and smoky wood flavors that allow for long aging. This is an impressive wine from one of the Margaux properties owned by the Lurton family. Drink from 2025.

Falstaff March - 2019
Falstaff
Dark ruby garnet, violet reflections, subtle edge brightening. Delicately tobacco-tinged black berry fruit, herbal spicy touch, vegetal hints. Juicy, complex, blackberries, somewhat brittle tannins, lemony-mineral touch in the aftertaste, salty finish.

Vinum Wine Magazine June - 2018
Vinum Wine Magazine
Guaranteed the greatest Brane that has ever been bottled, enormous aromatic complexity, with an unprecedented balance of ripeness and freshness, florality and fruitiness, perfectly ripe tannin of absolute class, unobtrusive density and depth, never-ending length: the absolute must this year.

Wine Spectator March - 2018
Wine Spectator
Silky and refined, with seductive crushed plum and raspberry fruit that glides along, perfectly melded with singed alder and mesquite notes along with black tea and warm licorice details. A violet element hangs in the background, adding to the elegance.

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.
