Château Cantenac-Brown is a 3ème Cru Classé property situated in Margaux and produces typically old-school, dense and saturated wines with generally excellent longevity from a blend of roughly two-thirds Cabernet Sauvignon to one-third Merlot. The 2000 vintage was exceptionally strong across Bordeaux and this wine is now absolutely perfect for drinking, with its deep black fruits, subtle savoury nuances, ripe tannins and sumptuous texture.

The 2000 Cantenac Brown is a vintage that I last tasted just after bottling. It has a rather splendid bouquet that has matured beautifully with raspberry preserve, wild strawberry, dark chocolate and hints of rose petal, a touch of liquorice developing with aeration. The palate is perhaps showing its age a bit more with ferrous red fruit, grainy texture and a little sharpness towards the finish. But this is a typical, quite delicious mature Margaux that should give another 10-15 years’ drinking pleasure. Tasted at the Cantenac Brown vertical at the château. Neal Martin11th October 2022
