Château Cantenac Brown 2008

Margaux, 3ème Grand Cru Classé

The nose is elegant, aromatic and relatively tight. It reveals notes of fresh berries, cassis and slight notes of blackberry, red fruits combined with slight / discreet hints of Sichuan pepper as well as a hint of tea and a few discreet (and well-integrated) woody hints. The mouth is fruity, mineral, well-balanced, delicate, supple, relatively gourmande and offers juiciness, a nice acid frame (red fruits) as well as a beautiful fat / roundness. On the palate, this wine expresses notes of crunchy strawberry, redcurrant and slight notes of blackberry combined with a very discreet hint of licorice and a (very) slight hint of tobacco. Tannins are fine. Good length.

Score : 16.25+
