Château Cantemerle

Traces of the fortress of Cantemerle date back to the 13th century, and it was at the beginning of the 18th century that the vineyard really appeared almost in its present form.

This is a fifth Grand Cru Classé following the prestigious 1855 list, presented to Emperor Napoléon III.

The vineyard extends over approximately 90 hectares on a soil and subsoil of Garonne gravel and a silico-gravelly context Rare and the average age of the vines is 40 years. Grape varieties: Cabernet Sauvignon 50%, Merlot noir 40%, Petit Verdot 5% and Cabernet Franc 5%. The yield is 600,000 bottles depending on the vintage, i.e. 6,500 to 6,800 bottles per hectare.

All grapes are harvested by hand, and the small berries are sorted in the winery. Vatting lasts around 28 to 30 days, then the wine is aged in new barrels for around half of it, for 16 months before bottling.

Description Château Cantemerle 2024.

On a historic terroir nestled between park and forest, Château Cantemerle signs a 2024 vibrant with balance and elegance. The year was marked by contrasting weather conditions, requiring precision in the vineyard and composure in the cellar. The grapes delivered pure, bright, taut juice.

From the very first moment on the palate, freshness asserts itself with floral juiciness. The mid-palate reveals a fine, harmonious body, carried by a subtle mineral framework.

The tannins, with their silky, tender grain, prolong the whole delicately. The finish, persistent and crisp, recalls fresh red fruit and the refinement characteristic of this Grand Cru Classé.

A blend dominated by Cabernet Sauvignon (73%), this vintage is fully in the Cantemerle tradition: a precise, racy wine with definite evolutionary potential. Aged 12 months in barrels (35% new), it will express itself with finesse in the years to come, while offering immediate pleasure to lovers of elegant structure.
