Huge wine. Dark ruby-colored. Intense aromas of ripe fruit and game. Full-bodied and compacted, with masses of tannins and fruit, yet still closed and not giving much on the palate. Give this brute time. Best Cantemerle ever?

Robert PARKER - The Wine Advocate
I believe the 1989 Cantemerle is this estate's finest wine since their monumental 1953. This rubypurple wine has an explosive bouquet of crushed blackberry fruit and violets, an opulent, lush texture bolstered by good alcohol levels and soft tannins.

Château Château Cantemerle
Château Cantemerle

Théophile-Jean Dubos, husband of Charlotte Delbos, took over the estate in 1892, with the help of his two sons Pierre and Bernard. Théophile Dubos was simultaneously a winegrower and owner of Cantemerle, vice-president of the Syndicat des crus classés du Médoc, and a merchant of the Dubos Frères house, which was sold in 1914. Upon Théophile's death in 1905, Pierre and Bernard Dubos became co-owners of Cantemerle until 1923, when Pierre became the sole owner. During the war and the crisis years of 1930-1940, many vineyard plots were uprooted at Cantemerle, so that from 1945 onwards, only about 25 hectares were cultivated, which were maintained until 1981. After Pierre Dubos's death in 1962, his grandson Bertrand Clauzel became the sole manager and remained so until the estate was sold in 1981 to the Mutuelles d'Assurance du Bâtiment et des Travaux Publics (Building and Public Works Insurance Mutuals).
