Chateau Cantemerle

Haut-Médoc
5ième Grand Cru Classé
1,5
Red
20% of the vineyards were lost to frost this year. The blend is 70% Cabernet Sauvignon, 25% Merlot and 5% Petit Verdot. Deep crimson colour and a pretty in the nose with fresh autumn berry fruit and a hint of oak; lush and silky on the palate with plums, tar, licorice and oak, quite classic but there is a nice vein of acidity and fruit. Nicely balanced and composed.
