Château Cantemerle 1996 is a full-bodied Left Bank Bordeaux from the Fifth Growth Château Cantemerle in the Haut-Médoc. Set among woodland in the far south of the Médoc, Cantemerle tends to produce relatively restrained, elegant wines, however the grand vin from the 1996 vintage is a particularly exuberant example, with ripe fruit character and a full body. "The 1996 Cantemerle is outstanding, offering up a deep and very vibrant bouquet of cassis, dark berries, cigar ash, gravelly soil tones, incipient notes of chipotles and a deft base of new vanillin oak. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied, complex and classically balanced, with a rock solid core, fine focus and grip, blossoming refinement and excellent length on the tangy and still fairly chewy finish. This wine is going to be excellent, but it is still at least six or seven years away from primetime drinking." John Gilman 2014
