Château Cantemerle 2012 is a classic red wine from the Haut-Médoc appellation in Bordeaux, France. It is a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Petit Verdot grapes, and is aged in oak barrels for 12 months. The wine has a deep ruby color with aromas of blackcurrant, blackberry, and a hint of vanilla. On the palate, it is full-bodied and rich, with flavors of dark fruit, cedar, and a touch of spice. The tannins are firm yet well-integrated, and the finish is long and elegant. This is a wine that will age beautifully over the next decade or more.

Smooth & graceful reflecting the velvety texture of high class Merlot and a touch of gentle freshness from the Cabernet-Franc.
Deliciously fruity, with chocolate notes and acidity. The wine has dense but soft tannins that merge seamlessly into the black fruits. It is ripe, sweet, densely juicy.

Due to poor weather during much of the growing season, this vintage should, by all rights, be best forgotten. And it is true that summer temperatures were cool, there were 100 mm of precipitation in August, ripening was very uneven, there were burst berries, etc. However, a miraculous and radical change in the weather propitious to botrytis turned what started out as a handicap to a decisive advantage. In fact, the variety and complexity of grapes brought in at different stages produced a fantastic wine.

An exciting vintage, where Yquem's diverse terroirs played a major role in juggling sugar levels that varied between rich, botrytised grapes and those less affected by noble rot, but full of amazing flavours that contributed enormously to the wine's aromatic complexity. The cellar team still remembers the heady fragrance that emerged from the winepress.
On the nose, the wine is said to offer aromas of honey, apricot, and vanilla, along with floral and citrus notes. On the palate, it is described as rich and full-bodied, with flavors of honey, marmalade, and tropical fruit, balanced by a bright acidity and a long, lingering finish.
