For seasoned wine lovers, Château Boyd-Cantenac is a go-to name in Margaux—an unshakable benchmark known for its admirable consistency. Once part of Château Cantenac-Brown, Boyd-Cantenac has long since stood on its own, proudly rooted in one of the appellation’s most coveted terroirs. Its clay-gravel soils lend the wines both structure and distinction, true to the signature style of this sector. Lucien Guillemet crafts his wines with precision and restraint, embracing both the rigor and the natural power of his land. He favors fully ripe Cabernet at harvest, resists trends, and makes no compromises. The result: structured, age-worthy wines that may be firm in their youth but offer remarkable aging potential. There’s no hesitation needed here—this is a smart En Primeur buy. A discreet Margaux with serious pedigree and one of the best-kept secrets of the appellation. |
