The 2000 Brane-Cantenac is a blend of 42% Cabernet Sauvignon, 55% Merlot and 3% Cabernet Franc. It has a really wonderful bouquet that is coming into its own: potent with black truffle and gravel infusing the red berry fruit. The palate is medium-bodied with a saline tang on the entry. It is not a powerful or huge wine, but there is impressive length here and genuine complexity on the finish, with black truffle, cedar and tobacco notes vying for attention. Henri Lurton oversaw a really quite fabulous, almost aristocratic Brane-Cantenac in this millennial year. 

Château Brane-Cantenac Description

Lovely bouquet, mineral notes and black truffle unfolding in the glass to accompany the beautiful aromas of black fruits. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannin and a beautiful acidity. This vintage is proportioned, replete with cedar and tobacco toward the fnish. This is a very fine millennial Brane-Cantenac.
