Château Cantemerle 1988 is a complex Cabernet Sauvignon-based blend bearing the rich, complex hallmark traits of the Margaux region. Initial aromas of dark fruit, notably ripe blackberries, are complemented by subtle notes of cedar and spice. The palate offers a structured impression, revealing tannins that have matured over time. Here Fifth Growth Cantemerle has produced a vintage worthy of study.

Robert Parker
The 1988 Cantemerle possesses adequate hard, dry tannins, but unlike many Medocs, there is sufficient fruit. The classy bouquet of black fruits, minerals, and spices is hard to resist. Medium-bodied and elegant, with plummy, mineral, and herb flavors, this stylish wine should be at its best between now and the end of the century. - Robert M. Parker, Jr.
