2014 Chateau Brane Cantenac, Baron de Brane
- In stock, ready to ship
ABOUT THE WINE
Located west of the village of Cantenac in the Margaux appellation, this 2eme Cru Classe estate has seen significant improvement in the vineyards and winemaking since Henri Lurton took over management in the 1990s. The 75 hectares of vineyard remain virtually unchanged since the Classification in 1855, and the estate also boasts significant parkland and beautifully manicured gardens. 25% organic, with progress towards 100% planned, and 12 hectares dedicated to an experiment in biodynamic farming.
TASTING NOTES
Intense red fruits, accented by liquorice, menthol and caramel. Accessible and concentrated, with good balance and elegant tannic structure. Finishes with a lingering hint of chocolate.
FOOD PAIRING
Perfect for burgers; simple, fatty meat dishes suit the red-fruit character of this second wine.

Already accessible, but best from 2019 to 2024.
