- The second wine exhibits a sumptuous texture and opulent character. It presents an array of aromas of ripe red fruits harmoniously accompanied by understated hints of dark chocolate. Upon savouring, it unveils a full and rounded body, with the red fruit aromas resonating on the palate. The tannins are seamlessly integrated, lending a robust finish that persists on the palate.
Fermentation occurred in temperature-controlled stainless steel vats, followed by a maceration lasting approximately three weeks to impart colour, flavour, and fine tannins to the wine. The malolactic conversion took place in oak barrels and vats. The wine was then matured for 12 months in French oak barrels, of which 25% were new, and 75% were one year old. The wine was racked every three months and fined with egg whites before bottling.
The second wine, Château Cantenac Brown, is textured and opulent with rich aromas of red fruits complemented by notes of dark chocolate. Full and round, with the red fruit aromas, echoed on the palate; the tannins are seamlessly integrated through to a powerful finish.

| Winery | The vineyard is managed using sustainable agriculture; strictly plant-based fertilisers are applied in moderation. The Cantenac Brown team uses traditional soil maintenance techniques to enhance the soil's structural, chemical and biological properties. The vines have an average age of 35 and are pruned according to the double Guyot method. They are meticulously cared for throughout the year, with pruning, removal of buds, leaves and secondary shoots, thinning out and yield control, all taking place to ensure the highest possible quality. |
