Château Brane-Cantenac

Grand Cru Classé en 1855 Margaux Red Bordeaux Blend 2021

2021 vintage. Courtesy of @Neil Valenzuela Decanted and tasted after 1 hour. Light medium/medium body. Backing band and structure mainly there. Intro and middle of the song catchy. Last third/finish will round into form in the next 7-8 years. Pretty introduction as we speak. Def beyond above-average producer that strives for (leaner) balance. So young but feel like this will represent that eventually. 12.10.25. — 9 days ago

Alter Ego Margaux Red Bordeaux Blend 2019

Opaque garnet/purple.
Nose of black currant, sour black cherry, dry rose petals, forest floor.
Perfectly balanced acid for age worthiness. Gritty to velvety tannins. Opened too soon. Enjoyed over the course of a week:) decades of aging potential.

Margaux Red Bordeaux Blend 2001

Wonderfully soft and silky upon opening, pruney fruit, feminine and rounded.
Drink now. Cuz during a few hours it fell apart pretty quickly. 93 -> 90…

Margaux Red Bordeaux Blend 1983

Violets, violets and more violets aromatically, after sitting in the decanter for 15 minutes, this wine decided to show its still youthful tannin, likely to inform me that it was still way too young to drink, long finish, but ideally needs more cellaring, one of my favorite Bordeaux ever, I have some more bottles so will wait on those, amazing!! — 12 hours ago

This is drinking so well. Nose of cassis, redcurrant, classic Margaux flowers, green peppercorn (Carmenere), crazy florals, just a masterful nose. Leather and glorious spice. Palate is wide and sleek, elegant and decadent than sharply concentrated and sweet. The tannins are sweet and aggressive but the fruit is extraordinary and in a few hours I see this being even more supple. Fantastic. — 17 days ago

Premier Grand Cru Classé Margaux Red Bordeaux Blend 1989

So, my long time wine group buddy brought this bottle from his cellar, absolutely stunning 36-year-old Bordeaux, but honestly, it tasted like a 10-year-old wine, so fresh and so amazingly long on the finish, honestly needs another 25-30 years in the cellar, nigh perfect!! — 12 hours ago
