About this product
Dry, Full Bodied style of Red BlendBordeaux, FranceNow under the watchful care of Henri Lurton, Chateau Brane-Cantenac comprises 55% Cabernet Sauvignon, 40% Merlot and lesser plantings of Cabernet Franc and Carmenere. Planted on fine, gravel soils, the estate proffers full-bodied wines of concentration and intensity, though oak use is kept to below 50% new for these prestigious wines. 2010 has produced a wine of satiny-textured, glossy fruit, with deep concentration and richness. Though the wine wouldn't be set to 'blockbuster' status, it is a profoundly excellent example of Margaux wine, and thankfully approachable within five years, for some earlier drinking pleasure. That being said, the wine will mature well for 30 years.

Full bodied red wines have a noticeably textural mouthfeel with bold, complex flavours. Often deeply coloured.
Dry wines have no trace of sweetness at all.

With a gorgeously evolved, extremely complex bouquet of forest floor, spring flowers, lead pencil shavings and red and black currants, this full-bodied, dense, ruby/plum/purple-colored wine hits the palate with an opulent, fleshy, full-bodied richness, si
