The estate and the wine
The estate and the wine Château Brane-Cantenac is one of Margaux's most sought-after Grands Crus Classés. With a highly homogeneous terroir in the historic heart of the cru, it has achieved major successes in recent vintages.
Wine Aligning volume and consistency, the 2019 Red Margaux by VALAP is a delicate and balanced wine, the perfect representation of this prized terroir. The balsamic and menthol notes are the sign of a perfectly ripe Cabernet Sauvignon, supported by aromas of charcoal, cedar and blackcurrant. The wine is beautifully mature, with great freshness, depth and well-proportioned tannins. It is a perfect representative of the appellation which will keep for another 10 to 15 years.
