Located in the heart of the Margaux appellation, Château Cantenac Brown is a magnificent Tudor-style estate unique in the Médoc. It was founded by Scottish businessman John Lewis Brown, who bought Domaine in 1803 and entrusted it with this architectural inspiration.
The Château Cantenac Brown will be classified Third Grand Cru Classé in 1855 during the official classification for the Paris Universal Exhibition.
Owned by the Le Lous Family since 2019, the vineyard, situated on magnificent gravel soils conducive to producing great wines, is planted on 60 hectares with 65% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot and 5% Cabernet Franc. The wines are aged for 16 months in French oak barrels, 60% of which are new. A Second wine is produced, Brio de Cantenac Brown.
Since 2011, Château owns 1.80 ha planted to 90% Sauvignon blanc and 10% Sémillon, giving birth to their white wine: Alto de Cantenac Brown.
Very committed to the environment, a new, eco-responsible, all-raw-earth winery is currently under construction for the estate. It will be delivered for the 2023 harvest.
The wines of Château Cantenac deliver a perfect representation of the very best Margaux, opulent, fine and deliciously complex.
In this vintage, Château Cantenac Brown succeeds in expressing all the elegance and power of the Margaux terroir. La robe garnet-red with purplish highlights quickly gives way to an intense nose of blackcurrant, blackberry and blueberry. With aeration, woody nuances emerge for added complexity. The palate is full and silky, revealing perfect balance. The tannins, which are slowly beginning to develop a patina, offer a silky texture. Fruity flavors mingle with chocolate aromas that linger on the palate.
