Château Cantenac Brown: A Third Growth of Distinction

A true gem of the Margaux appellation, Château Cantenac Brown is a 3ème Cru Classé from the 1855 Classification, instantly recognisable by its unique Tudor architecture. The estate has recently cemented its reputation as a rising star in the Médoc, driven by a commitment to excellence and sustainability, highlighted by its pioneering raw earth cellar-a testament to its respect for the terroir.

Tasting Profile: The Essence of Margaux

This wine perfectly captures the aromatic finesse and structural elegance for which Margaux is famed. The colour is a deep, almost opaque ruby. The nose is highly expressive, offering an aristocratic blend of cassis, black cherry, and subtle floral notes of lilac and violet. Extended barrel aging contributes layers of vanilla, sweet spice, and a characteristic pencil lead minerality. The palate is polished and harmonious, showcasing a powerful core of fruit framed by ultra-fine, persistent tannins. It is beautifully balanced and poised for long-term cellaring, promising a complex tapestry of flavours as it matures.

Food Pairing & Decanting

We recommend serving this wine at a cool room temperature (16-17°C). Given its structure, a long decant (2 hours) is essential when enjoying a younger bottle. This Margaux is the perfect accompaniment to the finest British Sunday roasts and game dishes.

• Service Temperature: 16°C - 17°C
• Peak Drinking: Best enjoyed 10-30 years post-vintage.
