Description

A beautifully poised wine that showcases the elegance and finesse of the Margaux terroir. The bouquet is fragrant and complex, with aromas of violets, cassis, plum and ripe cherry interwoven with notes of cedar, graphite and subtle spice. The palate is refined and silky, with polished tannins framing layers of juicy red and black fruit, lifted by floral nuances and a touch of mineral freshness. Graceful and harmonious, it finishes long and persistent, with the balance and depth to develop further complexity over many years.

Chateau Cantenac

It is located on an eminence of land, at the forefront of the St-Emilion hillsides, admirably exposed to the sun. The enchanted origin of this locality and its varietals of choice, planted with attention throughout the generations, confers to the wines of Château Cantenac this bouquet, this finesse and presence of the great wines of Saint-Emilion.

Bordeaux

Bordeaux, one of the most prestigious wine regions in the world, is located in southwestern France and is celebrated for its exceptional wines. It benefits from a temperate maritime climate, influenced by the nearby Atlantic Ocean, providing ideal conditions for viticulture. It is particularly renowned for its red wines, primarily blends of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Cabernet Franc, offering rich, complex flavours and excellent ageing potential. Notable sub-regions include Médoc, Saint-Émilion, and Pomerol. Bordeaux also produces exquisite white wines, both dry, from Sauvignon Blanc and Sémillon, and sweet, from the Sauternes and Barsac areas. The region's unique terroir, combined with centuries-old winemaking traditions, results in wines of unparalleled quality and distinction. Bordeaux remains a must-visit destination for wine enthusiasts seeking world-class wines and a rich viticultural heritage.
