Merchant's description

Baron de Brane is the second wine of Château Brane-Cantenac, a second growth château owned by Henri Lurton and one of the oldest properties in Margaux. Typically made from a blend of 60% Cabernet Sauvignon and 40% Merlot this is a classically styled Left Bank Bordeaux, offering up scents of cassis, tobacco, spices, cedar and earth. Medium-bodied, fresh and elegant, this would be an excellent wine to have alongside roasted meats or hard cheeses.
