This is a complex wine, with fruity and mineral notes, a taut, well-integrated texture, and a harmonious aromatic range. Croix Canon now occupies a leading position within the appellation.
With a delicate aroma of flowers, black raspberries, spice and earth, this medium bodied wine is pure elegance. Soft, refined and not for tasters that seek out ripe, powerful wines. This is my favorite vintage of Cantemerle since 1989. This is not a wine that needs a lot of cellaring time. Give it another 2-3 years and drink it up before it hits 20, to enjoy its delicate charms.

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.

Beautiful garnet-red. Expressive, intense nose of ultra-ripe red fruits coupled with an oaked and spice touch. A supple wine with both pleasant aromas and melted tannins. Lovely aromatic quality, focus and persistency.
Smooth & graceful reflecting the velvety texture of high class Merlot and a touch of gentle freshness from the Cabernet-Franc.
Cabernet sauvignon: 45% - Merlot: 40% - Petit verdot: 10% - Cabernet franc: 5%
Château Cheval Blanc Grand Cru Classe? ‘A’ 2009 has an intense crimson colour and a subtle bouquet that is both fruity and flora.
It also displays notes of fresh fig, blackberry, and red fruit such as raspberry, as well as hints of violet found in great vintages.
The wine is delightful on the palate thanks to its power, richness, body, and concentration.
48 % Cabernet Sauvignon - 47 % Merlot - 5 % Cabernet Franc
Coffee bean, cocoa, plum and cherries with soft, round textures and a forward personality
Notes of pineapple, peach, vanilla and broom flower with a hint of toasted brioche
