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 2021.

"Adorned with a magnificent purplish color, Cantemerle 2021 offers a very seductive, airy nose. Fragrances of jammy strawberry, raspberry fruit paste and peony blend subtly. A hint of licorice enhances the whole, adding depth. All is pleasure and greed. The palate, fresh from the start, evolves into a juicy, crisp body with fresh fruit flavors. The tannins are soft and long-lasting on the finish."

The care we take when receiving wines in our cellars enables us to detect bottles with imperfections (dirty or faded labels, damaged capsules, etc.). In such cases, they are systematically set aside and never put online! Our preparation team selects only bottles with perfect presentation for your orders!

It is these bottles with slight external defects that we present to you in the "Existe en imparfaite" selection. These bottles are, of course, of "irreproachable" gustatory quality, but suffer from slight defects on the label or cap. We therefore offer them at a preferential price, making the pleasure of tasting them even more affordable.
