Château Cantemerle 2015 is a powerful and complex Left Bank Bordeaux wine with a long history and a storied flavour profile to match.
With origins that hark back to 1147, Château Cantemerle is one of the oldest estates in Haut-Médoc. The grapes for their wines grow in a 93-hectare vineyard planted in fine, deep gravel. This leads to very ripe grapes which retain their zesty acid levels.
The grapes for this wine (59% Cabernet Sauvignon, 27% Merlot, 8% Cabernet Franc and 6% Petit Verdot) were harvested manually then vinified in wooden, stainless steel and cement vats. The wine then aged for 12 months in French oak barrels, of which 40% were new.
This is big, rich and ripe, complex layers of intense blackcurrant fruits, balanced by a lovely bracing acidity and a sweet, almost toffee-like oak character. There is elegance in bundles here, but also shows the recent Cantemerle form of making richer, deeper, more powerful and age-worthy wines. It is the perfect expression of a balanced Bordeaux which gives voice to a great terroir. Drink it now or age it patiently in the cellar until 2032 for further delights.
Enjoy Château Cantemerle 2015 with duck breast with bacon, cabbage and balsamic dressing. It also shines with robustly-flavoured Alpine cheeses.
