2020 Château Brane-Cantenac Margaux de Brane

Brane Cantenac's roots can be traced back to the early 18th century. At the time it was owned by the Gorce family and known as Château Gorce (and for a while as Château Gorce Guy). Today the Château consists of 90 hectares of vineyards in the Margaux appellation. The largest vineyard covers 45 hectares and is located next to the Château on the plateau de Brane. The 2nd vineyard (22 hectares) is located further north near Soussans. The other vineyards are located further south near Arsac. The terroir consists mainly of gravel but to a lesser extent also of sand and clay. This Margaux consists of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Cabernet Franc. Baron de Brane is the second wine from Château Brane Cantenac and this Margaux de Brane is the 3rd wine from Château Brane Cantenac.

Henri Lurton selects the youngest plots of the vineyard for Margaux de Brane. This Baron de Margaux is a silky, fruit-driven wine with impressive roundness and aromas of red fruit, the wine is much more accessible and while the big brother often has to age for years, it is already delicious in its young years. It provides an introduction to the wonders of the Margaux appellation and in particular to Brane's signature style. The 2020 vintage is a blend of 64% Merlot
and 36% Cabernet Sauvignon.
