Rezensionen & Bewertungen
95 Vinous
José Sanfins has overseen a 2019 Cantenac Brown that will give immense pleasure in coming years. The bouquet has tightened up since I tasted the barrel sample (also at the château, in summer 2021): blackberry, raspberry and cedar are now accompanied by just a touch of peppermint. The palate is medium-bodied, taut and fresh, with sappy red fruit, fine acidity and a vibrant, harmonious finish. This Margaux brims with confidence and should give 30 to 40 years of drinking pleasure. The insiders' Margaux of choice.
95 James Suckling
This has subtle aromas of blackcurrants and blueberries with hints of just-picked violets, light vanilla, licorice and crushed stones. Forest-floor notes, too. Medium to full body, layers of firm tannins and a velvety mouth-feel. Delicious crushed berries on the palate. Compact with a firm finish. Better from 2026.

Shows the hallmarks of the vintage, with steeped plum, blackberry and boysenberry fruit paste flavors that are broad and lush, while singed wood, violet and anise notes filter in. Features underlying freshness, with finely beaded acidity providing support. A step ahead. Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. Drink now through 2035. 9,583 cases made. — JM

Château Cantenac-Brown
John Lewis Brown, ein Tierzeichner aus Schottland, erwarb diesen Weinberg zu Beginn des 19. Jahrhunderts und gab den Bau eines Châteaus im Tudor-Stil in Auftrag. Als Bonvivant erwarb er sich bald einen Ruf als glänzender Gastgeber rauschender Feste, die auf seinem Château stattfanden. 1843 verkaufte er den Besitz an einen Bankier namens Gromard, der auch 1855 Eigentümer war, als Cantenac Brown als 3ème Cru in die berühmte Klassifikation von Médoc-Weinen aufgenommen wurde. 150 Jahre später, hat die Familie Simon Habibi dem Anwesen neues Leben eingehaucht, entschlossen, es auf allerhöchstes Niveau zu führen. Dementsprechend wurden die Weinbaumethoden umgestellt, die Arbeit im Weinberg dem Respekt vor der Natur unterworfen und die Erträge zurückgefahren. Die Rückkehr zu naturnahen Praktiken beinhaltet auch das Verfahren des Pflügens, um die physikalischen, chemischen und biologischen Eigenschaften des Weinbergs zu verbessern.
