Château Brane-Cantenac Baron De Brane Margaux Red Bordeaux Blend 2010

Deep and pure on the nose. Excellent balance of black fruit preserve, floral notes, and graphite. Dense and gripping. Revealing today, but clearly warrants more time in the cellar.

Scott Hill

Very ripe almost jammy black currant and raspberry aromas and flavors with a long finish of allspice, cinnamon and graphite. Outstanding second label Margaux.

Solid Bordeaux with some leather and funk given the 2010 vintage. Didn’t love for the price tag. Very old world.

Dan Pugh

Good and well blended Bordeaux; complex and almost soft on the tongue. Fruity but not sweet. Nice earth notes and gentle tannin. Overall quite good. Drank very well with steak. Maureen says, "very smooth and delicious".

Carl Fischer

Nice. A touch of barnyard funk or stinky cheese. But I liked it.

Richard Sohn

Soft, dark fruit. Low acid.

Jeff D

From 375 mL, this is aromatically open and developing nicely, high complexity.

Chris England

2nd wine of Brane-Cantenac @ a bargain £25 in a top year that's nothing special but great value drinking OK but give 2-3 years to improve

Chip Krotee

Vondo and Pat Xmas Lunch tradition. Paired with Bilboquet famous cajun chicken. Rating reflects company.

#chateaubranecantenac #lurton #margaux #2010 #grandvin #bordeaux #france #joeldamienrobitaille A bit of disappointment, flat, no depth!! I'm a big fan of château brane-cantenac, but this wine did nothing for me. I had high expectations for such a well known château.
