Brane Cantenac, a classified Second Growth estate located within the Margaux appellation, has been owned by the Lurton family since 1920. Their expansive 90-hectare vineyard is nestled in deep gravelly soils, a factor that imparts exceptional aromatic characteristics to their wines. In 1992, Henri Lurton succeeded his father, upholding the tradition of meticulous vineyard-centric winemaking and careful plot-by-plot vinification. The 2010 vintage is a blend dominated by 62% Cabernet Sauvignon, complemented by 30% Merlot and 8% Cabernet Franc. It opens with evolving aromas reminiscent of tobacco, freshly tanned leather, and dried plums, gradually revealing notes of blackcurrant jam, raisins, and hints of minerality. Medium to full-bodied, the wine exhibits a robust structure with exceptionally firm tannins and a lively underlying backbone that provides steadfast support to the dense fruit flavours. The finish is impressively long.

Chateau Brane-Cantenac

Chateau Brane-Cantenac

Formerly owned by the great figures of Bordeaux wine, Lucien Lurton, Château Brane-Cantenac is a highly respected Second Growth estate in Margaux. The estate has been owned and run by Lucien’s son, Henri, since 1992. Although perceived to have gone through a lull during the 1970s and 1980s, historically, Brane-Cantenac was always regarded as the a ‘Super Second’. This reputation has only been enhanced by Henri Lurton, through the implementation of better vineyard management techniques (the entire 75ha has been certified organic since 2016) and investment in cutting-edge cellar technology (for example, optical sorting machines).

The estate grows mostly Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot (slightly more Cabernet) along with a small amount of Cabernet Franc and Carmenere. The Grand Vin of Château Brane-Cantenac is noted for its ripe tannins, excellent fruit concentration and structure, and perfumed delicacy – all characteristics of the finest wines of Margaux.
