En Margaux andenvin i en helt anden liga end konkurrenternes. Bedst bedømte Brio, ever?</span></span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 14px;"><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">Cantenac-Brown er berømt for sin bizarre slotsbygning, som den skotske maler John Lewis Brown bygede i traditionel Tudorstil. Slottet har navn efter samme Brown og efter sin hjemkommune. Rent vinmæssigt var Cantenac Brown frem til 1990 ikke Cru Classé værdig. Siden har investeringslystne AXA Millésimes og fra 2006 den nuværende ejer, familien Simon Halabi, løftet kvaliteten år for år. </span></span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 14px;"><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">Beplantningstætheden på hele 10.000 planter pr. ha. giver færre, mindre og mere smagsintense druer, som teknisk direktør Jose Sanfins med dygtighed formår at omsætte til vin og ratings i absolut verdensklasse</span></span></p> <h2><strong><span style="font-size: 14px;"><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">Anmeldelser af Brio de Cantenac Brown Margaux 2018</span></span></strong></h2> <p><em><span style="font-size: 14px;"><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>94/100 Vert de Vin</strong></span><br />"The nose is elegant, fine , fruity and offers freshness as well as a small complexity. It reveals notes of fresh/crunchy cassis, ripe blackberry and small notes of wild strawberry associated with fine touches of gray pepper, flowers as well as fine hints of toasted. The plaate is fruity, well-balanced and offers a beautiful definition, a good finesse of the grain, gourmandize, a mineral frame, a fine juiciness, freshness, finesse, fullness as well as a beautiful silky and delicate touch. On the palate this wine expresses notes of juicy blackberry and juicy/fresh raspberry associated with small touches of flowers (violet, cornflower) as well as fine hints of juicy small red berries, discreet hints of small juicy red berries, discreet hints of toasted, chocolate, caramelization (in the background) and a subtle hint of sweet spices (in the background). Tannins are elegant. A fine saline hint on the finish. Good length. A subtle hint of coffee on the persistence."</span></span></em></p> <p><em><span style="font-size: 14px;"><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>93/100 Falstaff</strong></span><br />"Strong ruby garnet, delicate ocher reflections, subtle lightening of the edges. Fresh plums, fine blackberry confit, a hint of nougat, candied orange zest, fine tobacco. Juicy, sweet heart-kissed, elegant and fresh, fine tannins, pleasant hint of chocolate on the finish, already very easy to drink, a wine with charm...."</span></span></em></p> <p><em><span style="font-size: 14px;"><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>92-93/100 James Suckling</strong></span><br />"This is very rich and edgy with lovely brightness and freshness, underlying the black and blue fruit. Warm and spicy, too. Medium to full body. Pretty second wine."</span></span></em></p> <h1><strong><span style="font-size: 14px;"><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">Om Château Cantenac Brown</span></span></strong></h1> <p><em><span style="font-size: 12px;"><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">Grand Vin: Château Cantenac-Brown, Margaux 3.
