History

Chateau Brane-Cantenac became part of the Bordeaux wines history when it was ranked second in the official classification of Bordeaux wines of 1855. Three centuries ago, the vineyard was called Hostein and owned by the Gorce family. In 1866, the property was sold to the Roy family who also owned the Chateau d’Issan and finally bought by the Société des Grands Crus de France in 1920. In 1925, the Lurton family, represented at that time by François Lurton took over all of Brane-Cantenac and a majority share of Chateau Margaux.

Since 1992 Henri Lurton, the son of Lucien Lurton, one of Bordeaux’s most esteemed winegrowers, has been the owner of the property. Worthy heir to his father, Henri shares the same passion, that of producing exceptional wines, vintage after vintage, thanks to the terroir that has been entrusted to him. Chateau Brane-Cantenac has built its reputation on a vineyard of 90 hectares spread over several plots.

Terroir & Vinification

The production area is 75 hectares. Most of the plots of this beautiful terroir rise on the famous “Brane croup”, composed of deep graves which provide a large number of aromatic qualities to the wine. The grape variety is 55% Cabernet Sauvignon, 40% Merlot, 4.5% Cabernet Franc and 0.5% Carmenère. La Verdotte, a part of the vineyard, of about ten hectares, located on the road connecting Margaux to Arsac is cultivated in biological control since the 2010 campaign. A replanting program aims at renewing this vineyard in the years to come. Overall, every decision to conduct the vineyard complies with the guidelines for environmentally-friendly viticulture.

In the cellar, the type of barrels used (up to 70% new barrels) and the length of aging (average 18 months) are determined according to the characteristics of the vintage and the blend.

Tasting

Beautiful, clear garnet colour. The nose is intense and shows a nice acidity, with aromas of red fruits such as fresh raspberries and redcurrants. These notes are accompanied by a well-integrated touch of spice, adding a lovely freshness. The attack is supple and round. This wine has very fine tannins. Freshness dominates, with aromas of fresh red fruit and spices. This is a smooth and very pleasant wine with a lovely aromatic power.
