Merchant's description

Château Cantenac-Brown is a 3ème Cru Classé property situated in Margaux and produces typically old-school, dense and saturated wines with generally excellent longevity from a blend of roughly two-thirds Cabernet Sauvignon to one-third Merlot. The 2000 vintage was exceptionally strong across Bordeaux and this wine is now absolutely perfect for drinking, with its deep black fruits, subtle savoury nuances, ripe tannins and sumptuous texture.
