Chateau Brane-Cantenac – Margaux – 2010
$148.00
Blend of 62% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot, and 8% Cabernet Franc.
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, silky tannins, and a very layered, profoundly concentrated style that is, at the same time, both powerful and sublime. This gorgeous wine from proprietor Andre Lurton will benefit from 3-5 years of cellaring and evolve for 25-30 years. Wine Advocate – 95+
