Château Brane Cantenac 2ème GCC Margaux 2019

The Margaux appellation is one of the finest in the Médoc. However, the wines within Margaux are very indifferent. Around 15 years ago, some wine estates fell into a new zeitgeist. The wines became more opulent, more concentrated and often appeared overloaded with fruit, wood and tannin. Château Brane Cantenac has consistently ignored trends and has always remained true to itself. This winery has always stood for timeless elegance and fine, finesse-rich wines that never come across as clumsy or overloaded. When you taste mature vintages of this Deuxième Cru today, you know that the Château has done everything right. The 2019 impresses with its depth and length. The silky, ripe tannins and the complexity of the black fruit will carry this wine a long way. It has 97 points from Robert Parker.
