Bordeaux Margaux Lovely floral, berry, cherry and tobacco nose, with a hint of vanilla. Full-bodied and thick, with silky tannins and a tobacco, Cabernet finish. From an estate that's going places. Score range: 92-94 Wine Spectator This famous property, which has long underperformed, has been resurrected over recent vintages, particularly since 1998. The dense ruby/purple-colored 2000 offers complex, elegant, floral notes intermixed with black currant, cherry, smoke, and earth. Rich and velvety-textured, with a long, impressive, seamless finish, this pure, concentrated, mouthfilling Brane-Cantenac is a tribute to the young Henri Lurton, who has done a terrific job in reestablishing this estate to its rightful pedigree. Anticipated maturity: 2004-2020. Rated 91-93 Robert Parker |
