Chateau Brane Cantenac 2eme Cru 2025

Brane-Cantenac har i årevis været en af de nærmeste forfølgere af de absolutte ledere Margaux og Palmer. Sammen med de genoplivede Lascombes, Rauzan-Ségla og Giscours udgør vingården en tæt gruppe af forfølgere. Og nogle gange er Brane Cantenac endda primus inter pares. Måske endda i 2025! Rige røde kirsebær, viol og syren i næsen, med meget fin let lakrids og mælkechokolade. Meget elegant, dansende næse! Munden er fin og samtidig fuld af energi. Øjnene trækker sig lidt sammen ved pikantheden. Men finessen og delikatessen er fremherskende. Et virkelig fremragende samspil mellem den fabelagtige spænding og den rige tannin, som er helt poleret. Alt i alt udstråler den en høj intensitet og masser af damp. Jeg tror, at Brane-Cantenac sagtens kan konkurrere med Château Lascombe, som også er i gang med en genopblomstring og bestemt er en af topvinene i appellationen. Men mens Lascombe tenderer mere mod kraft og maskulinitet i stil med en Pichon Baron, er Brane stadig foran D'Issan i retning af Chateau Palmer, dvs. total smeltning og vibrerende finesse. En stor succes i dette storslåede år og muligvis den bedste Brane Cantenac nogensinde!

Årsrapporten

2025 vil helt sikkert indtage sin plads blandt de bedste Bordeaux-årgange nogensinde – sammen med 2009, 2016 og 2022 – og er samtidig en af de mest afbalancerede og harmoniske årgange overhovedet. OG den er meget tidligt drikkeklar og charmerende. Sådan skal det være!

Jeff Leve om: Chateau Brane Cantenac 2eme Cru

Black cherries, currants, roses, violets, spice, and forest floor create the aromatics. On the palate, the elegance and purity of the fruit are instantly recognizable. The lift and vibrancy, paired with concentration and sensuality, set this apart. The finish starts strong and continues seamlessly. 2025 marks the Lurton family's 100th anniversary of owning the vineyard. You can expect to see a special label celebrating the occasion. The 2025 is in competition with the 2022 as the best vintage ever produced at the estate. The wine blends 80% Cabernet Sauvignon, 18% Merlot, 1% Carmenere, and 1% Cabernet Franc. 13.3% ABV, 3.62 pH. Harvesting took place September 2 - September 19. Yields were 32 hectoliters per hectare. Drink from 2029-2065.Read more at:https://www.thewinecellarinsider.com/search-wine-tasting-notes/?szSearch=2025

Jane Anson om: Chateau Brane Cantenac 2eme Cru

This is luscious and full of wonderfully bright fruits, great concentration, cushion of air underneath, high Cabernet and it comes through in the floral aromatics, clearly a plentiful tannic structure but luscious and layered damson and black cherry. Yes yes yes. 12.10% press wine. 3.62 pH. Tasted twice. 100 years of the Lurtons at Brane.

Decanter om: Chateau Brane Cantenac 2eme Cru

Ripe and juicy blackcurrant aromas, really pure and expressive, fruit forward with iris notes as well. Juicy and friendly with such a lifted, bright and energetic core but grippy too, really wide and filling with the structure and concentration matching the acidity step for step. Firm and streamlined, but there’s purity and I do love the slightly more muscular aspect to this. Maybe less charming than previous vintages but more sophisticated. Clarity is exceptional. Lovely and long.

Jeb Dunnuck om: Chateau Brane Cantenac 2eme Cru

Cassis, graphite, liquid violets, and tobacco all define the 2025 Château Brane-Cantenac, a blend of 77% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Merlot, and 1% each Cabernet Franc, Carménère, and Petit Verdot that's being raised in 100% new French oak. On the palate, it's medium to full-bodied, with a focused, elegant mouthfeel, beautiful concentration and depth, integrated acidity, and a great finish. Hitting 13.5% alcohol, it's a brilliant success in the vintage and should be snatched up by readers.

Colin Hay om: Chateau Brane Cantenac 2eme Cru

(Margaux; 80% Cabernet Sauvignon; 18% Merlot; 1% Carménère; 1% Cabernet Franc; a final yield of 32.2 hl/ha; pH 3.62; 13.3% alcohol; 12% press wine; tasted twice, first at the UGCB press tasting at the Cité du Vin and then with Christophe Capdeville at Brane Cantenac). Look out for the special centennial label to mark 100 years of the Lurton family's ownership. This is divine aromatically and yet also delivers an incredible density and compactness in the mid-palate that only Brane seems to be able to achieve with this much clarity, finesse, elegance and precision. There's a gentle and very natural sweetness to the aromatics. This is a wine of a paradoxical brilliance given the constrast between its staggering freshness and the climatic conditions from which it was forged. The floral notes are delicate and subtle - lily of the valley, perhaps a littee mimosa and iris. There's a touch of incense too. Brane Cantenac in 2025 is texturally sublime, with an amazing sensation of layering and a dynamic freshness that seems to well up from below very naturally. Quite simply, this is a triumph.

Brane Cantenac

Vingården i Margaux-appellationen, som blev oprettet i begyndelsen af det 18. århundrede, ejes af den højt respekterede vinproducentfamilie Lurton, som også bor på slottet, der har en smuk, men ret beskeden beliggenhed og meget store vinmarker (85 hektar).
