2018 Chateau Brane-Cantenac 2eme Cru Classe, Margaux (6x75cl)

Wine Advocate : 93+/100 | Vinous : 95/100 | JSWine : 95/100 | Commentaire Wine Advocate : The 2018 Brane-Cantenac is medium to deep garnet-purple in color, leaping from the glass with vibrant notes of kirsch, black raspberries and warm cassis, plus suggestions of roses, forest floor and cinnamon stick with a waft of cedar chest. The medium-bodied palate is wonderfully elegant and refreshing, weighing in at just 13.5% alcohol, while not scrimping on the interplay of red and black fruits. It has lovely soft tannins and a long, perfumed finish. Impressive! LP-B March 2021 | Commentaire JS Wine : 8 Jan, 2021 – Aromas of mushroom, meat, bark and iodine with blackberries and blackcurrants, following through to a full body with firm, creamy tannins that give structure and form to the wine. Tight on the finish. Long and persistent with presence. Drink after 2025.
