"Château Cantemerle’s younger sibling displays the same elegance as its older brother, showing the attractive blackcurrant and tobacco aromas which are the dominant characteristics of its terroir. In the mouth its tannins are marvelously silky, with an expansive finesse and freshness producing a well-knit, etherial wine. For all its charm this wine will continue to evolve as this is a vintage which has not yet fully developed everywhere in the Médoc. It possesses an aromatic potential that a little patience and good cellaring will soon reveal." ~winery notes
About Les Allees De Cantemerle
Cantemerle's vineyard is situated on fine and deep gravel in the Macau and Ludon villages of the Haut-Médoc appellation. A rich variety of factors produce complex, balanced, and refined wines which reflect the exceptional nature of Cantemerle's terroir.

This unique soil and microclimat are reflected in the wine's personality. Cantemerle has a brilliant colour, a powerful bouquet, and a soft, lively flavour. It is rare to find such refined fruitiness. This great wine can be enjoyed young, when it is charming, fruity, and marked by a vanilla taste which comes from well-integrated oak.

This makes Cantemerle an ideal choice for the modern wine drinker who likes fresh tannins. However, it can also age extremely well. Fine, old vintages have impeccable class, with incomparable flavours of sheer elegance. Cantemerle therefore belongs to that rare category of the world's wines which can not only age, but also improve over several decades.
