Chateau Cantenac Brown

John Lewis Brown, ein schottischer Tiermaler, kaufte die Weinberge zu Beginn des 19. Jahrhunderts. Er ließ ein Schloss im englischen Tudorstil erbauen, in dem er als Liebhaber guter Weine und großer Feste pracht- und glanzvolle Abendveranstaltungen oranisierte.1843 verkaufte er das Chateau an einen Bankier namens Gromard, der auch an der Spitze des Weinguts stand, als es 1855 bei der berühmten Klassifizierung zum dritten Grand Cru Classen ernannt wurde. 150 Jahre später verleiht Simon Halabi dem Anwesen neuen Elan und verfolgt das Ziel, auf das höchste
Niveau zu heben.

Chateau Cantenac Brown 2019 Margaux

James Suckling über den Chateau Cantenac Brown 2019 Margaux:

24 Jan, 2022 – This has subtle aromas of blackcurrants and blueberries with hints of just-picked violets, light vanilla, licorice and crushed stones. Forest-floor notes, too. Medium to full body, layers of firm tannins and a velvety mouth-feel. Delicious crushed berries on the palate. Compact with a firm finish. Better from 2026.

William Kelley im April 2022:
BEST EVER für den Wineadvocate

The 2019 Cantenac Brown is a brilliant wine from José Sanfins and his team. Unwinding in the glass with deep aromas of wild berries, licorice, loamy soil, burning embers and violets, it's medium to full-bodied, seamless and layered, with terrific concentration, beautifully refined tannins and a seamless, elegant profile. Given its quality, this remains somewhat under the radar and is well worth a special effort to seek out.

94 Punkte vom Vinous-Team für den Chateau Cantenac Brown 2019 Margaux

Antonio Galloni (Vinous) bewertet den Chateau Cantenac Brown 2019 Margaux:

The 2019 Cantenac Brown is flashy and opulent, while also conveying the slightly cooler nature of the year vis-à-vis the 2018. A big, heady Margaux, Cantenac Brown is endowed with tremendous pedigree and class. Expressive savory accents round out the potent brooding finish. The 2019 has a ton to offer. It's a fine effort by the team lead by José Sanfins. Tasted two times.

Und Neal Martin (Vinous) zum Chateau Cantenac Brown 2019 Margaux:

José Sanfins has overseen a 2019 Cantenac Brown that will give immense pleasure in coming years. The bouquet has tightened up since I tasted the barrel sample (also at the château, in summer 2021): blackberry, raspberry and cedar are now accompanied by just a touch of peppermint. The palate is medium-bodied, taut and fresh, with sappy red fruit, fine acidity and a vibrant, harmonious finish. This Margaux brims with confidence and should give 30 to 40 years of drinking pleasure. The insiders' Margaux of choice.

Für den Wine Spectator verköstigte James Molesworth denChateau Cantenac Brown 2019 Margaux:

This is lovely, toeing the line between racy and toasty, with a mix of lemon and gooseberry gelée notes against a backdrop of brioche and macadamia nut. Ends with a nice floral lift through the finish. Sauvignon Blanc and Sémillon. Drink now through 2022. 708 cases made.

89-90+ Punkte

Blaubeerig, mittelkräftig, feine Tannine, zarte grüne Nuancen im Finish.

William Kelly zum Chateau Cantenac Brown 2021 Margaux (April 2022):

The 2021 Cantenac Brown is another fine effort from a Margaux estate that's been on something of a roll of late. Unwinding in the glass with notions of cassis, wild berries, loamy soil and cigar box, it's medium to full-bodied, layered and seamless, with good concentration, lively acids and a nicely defined finish. José Sanfins and his team opted to wait to pick the estate's Cabernet Sauvignon between the fourth and 12th of October, and that appears to have paid off. The blend is 73% Cabernet Sauvignon and 27% Merlot, and just over half the estate's production went into the grand vin. 92-94 Punkte

Antonio Galloni bewertet den Chateau Cantenac Brown 2021 Margaux im Mai 2022 und lobt die Cabernet Characteristik die in diesem Jahrgang sehr klar wahrzunehmen ist. Er empfindet den Wein als vielversprechend mit dem noch nötigen Ausbau.

The Wine Cellar Insider (Jeff Leve) : 92-94 / 100

Flowers, espresso, cocoa and black currants are what you find on the nose. The wine is soft, round and polished on the medium/full-bodied palate, finishing with more of that dark cocoa, roasted coffee, black cherry and a hit of peppery spice on the backend. Drink from The wine is a blend of 73% Cabernet Sauvignon and 27% Merlot. 13.2% ABV, 3.75 pH. The harvest took place September 23-October 4. Drink from 2024-2032.

92-93 Sucklingpunkte für den Chateau Cantenac Brown 2021 Margaux

Antonio Galloni zum Chateau Cantenac Brown 2020 Margaux :

The 2020 Cantenac Brown is an outrageously beautiful wine. Ample, vertical and soaring in its intensity, the 2020 is shaping up to be a jewel of a wine. Punchy red berry fruit, lavender, spice, mint and rose petal abound. What I like most about the 2020 is the way it balances fruit intensity with vibrancy and energy. Cantenac Brown is shaping up to be one of the wines of the vintage.

96-97 Suckling-Punkte für den Chateau Cantenac Brown 2020

James Suckling schreibt zum Chateau Cantenac Brown 2020 Margaux Folgendes:

Fantastic depth of fruit with layers of firm, chewy tannins that are medium-grained and long in the mouth. Full and dynamic. One of the best ever.

94-96 Punkte vom Vinous-Team für den Chateau Cantenac Brown 2020

Neal Martin zum Chateau Cantenac Brown 2020 Margaux:

The 2020 Cantenac Brown, cropped at 36hl/ha, has quite a precocious bouquet of macerated small black cherries, blueberry, touches of cassis and violet, all very generous and seductive in style. The palate is beautifully balanced and extremely pure, offering succulent ripe tannins, perfectly judged acidity and layers of blueberry, Dorset plum, crushed stone and light graphite notes toward the finish, which has just the right amount of salinity. This is a sophisticated and quite cerebral Margaux in a series of excellent recent releases from the estate. Highly recommended.

Vom Falstaff-Magazin mit 92-94 Punkten bewertet

Tiefdunkles Rubingranat, opaker Kern, violette Reflexe, zarte Randaufhellung. Zarte Edelholznuancen, schwarze Beeren, etwas Lakritze, rotbeerige Nuancen, tabakig, ein Hauchvon Kräuterwürze. Saftig, rote Kirschen, frisch strukturiert, präsente Tan- nine, salzig-mineralisch im Abgang, rotbeeriger Rückgeschmack, zitroniger Nachhall.

Die Degustationsnotiz des Wine Advocate zum Chateau Cantenac Brown 2020 Margaux :

Deep garnet-purple in color, the 2020 Cantenac Brown slides effortlessly out of the glass with pronounced notes of licorice, tar, tapenade and fertile loam over a core of warm cassis and plum preserves, with a waft of charcuterie. The medium-bodied palate is refreshing, bursting with crunchy black fruit and herbal sparks with a well-managed, grainy texture, finishing long and earthy.
