Brane Cantenac 2022
2e Grand Cru Classé
Margaux
Vinous – Antonio Galloni – 95-97/100
The 2022 Brane-Cantenac is captivating. Aromatic, savory and layered, the
2022 is so alluring from the outset. The natural radiance of the year is very
much on display, and yet there is nothing that is overdone about the 2022.
Hints of blood orange, spice, rose petal and minerals open over time,
offering stunning contrast to the sheer intensity of the fruit shaped by low
yields and tiny berries. Brane-Cantenac is, in my view, one of the most
under-the-radar wines on the Left Bank. The 2022 is a stunner.
Robert Parker The Wine Advocate – 95-97/100
A blend of 74% Cabernet Sauvignon, 23% Merlot and the balance Cabernet Franc, Carmenère and Petit Verdot, the 2022 Brane-Cantenac unwinds in the glass with aromas of dark berries, crème de cassis, black truffles, loamy soil, burning embers and violets. Medium to full-bodied, deep and velvety, with a fleshy core of fruit, terrific concentration and lively acids, it concludes with a long, perfumed finish. This is a terrific 2022 that may rival or even surpass the 2019 if it realizes all its potential in bottle.
