Château Brane-Cantenac

Margaux 2021

Having been through many iterations since its establishment in the early 17th century, what we know today as Château Brane-Cantenac has well and truly settled into itself and become something extraordinary. Taking its name from the man knows as the “Napoleon of the Vineyards”, the Baron of Brane, who purchased it in 1833, the Château has passed through several hands, finally coming to rest in the hands of Lucien Lurton in 1956. Under the Lurton family large portions of the vineyard were replanted, vine densities increased, drainage systems improved and the plantings evolved into their current varietals.
