Typical powerful balanced grand cru classes from Margaux Cantenac. Not the best year or blend that this fine house has produced. Still ... it's a very nice blend... a bit heavier and not as round as I expected. — 8 years ago
Of the 2 Bordeaux drinking the best tonight, but long term the Brane-Cantenac 2005 will outlive this wine by 10 years easy. While very complex, a fine touch a green is traceable.
A classic currant and forest floor nose, fall leaves abound with a spike of spice and a barely there green that while subtle is apparent.
The pleasure here is higher for its more mature tasted and feel, while the brawny 2005 is a better wine it was not as enjoyable to me and feel it will be another notch enter in 3 years, and likely 2 notches better in 5.
The elegance and feel on this wine is ready to go and will easily go another 5+ years. — 9 years ago
STUNNING. The expression of everything a California Cab Sauv should be. Huge nose of deep, dark raisin/blackberry with a layered structure of firm tannins. The saga-like finish leaves your palate with black cherries and slight oak spice. I'm in heaven. — 10 years ago
A favorite rose for the spring and summer. A little deeper than the Provençal rose's, but smooth, dry, and full of fruit. 2014 vintage. — 10 years ago

Sean Boyd nailed this Mourvèdre! Smoke, tar, blackberry compote, and wildflowers with a touch of salty sea air. In fact, I just want to keep my nose in the glass! I expected something big, like a Bandol. This is certainly relatively full-bodied, but the fruit, lean tannins, and a touch of succulent acidity are harmonious. I suspect this will easily cellar another 7-9 years. Paired with duck breast and asparagus and wild mushrooms. — 7 years ago

I'm always going to rate Broman higher than most people will say it deserves, but it's a great wine at a great price made by great people. And that's part of the magic of wine. This is the second of two bottles we brought home from a visit with the owners. The first bottle we drank a few months ago, and it seemed middle aged with plenty of fruit. This bottle was more austere and showed much less fruit. This reminded me of a 30 year old Brane Cantenac we had 10 years ago. — 8 years ago

Troisième Cru Classé in 1855. Cantenac-Margaux. Thursday 9th July 2015 at The Connaught hotel. One of Palmer's best vintages over the past 35 years. It is still at its peak without any sign that it is starting to fade. — 10 years ago

My wife went to the Boyd Vineyard last weekend on a private tour recommended by a colleague. She liked the 2010 Cab, Oak Knoll District so much, she had the vineyard ship a case home for my birthday. extremely smooth even without giving time to breathe. Not overpowered berry or other fruit, dry but without dust on the rim. You will make a good impression if you bring this to the next dinner party invite but volunteer to open on site as you may not find it again. Just returned from a business trip to my French parent company. I did not taste anything better over there. Concerned how the 2011 will fare given how that poor year is shaping up but there are exceptions, — 11 years ago
