Château Cantenac Brown 2021 Margaux (75cl)

Château Cantenac Brown 2021 is a Margaux red from an estate classified as a Third Growth in 1855. The official estate vintage sheet gives a blend of 73% Cabernet Sauvignon and 27% Merlot, aged in French oak, 60% new and 40% one-vintage barrels. Harvest ran from late September into mid-October, with cold dry mornings favouring the Cabernets after a year of frost and humid early summer. About 51% of production entered the Grand Vin. The estate describes very aromatic first vats with raspberry, softer Merlots and more concentrated Cabernets, and a round, full-bodied blend with fine, elegant tannins.
