Château Brane Cantenac

Château Clerc Milon

Pauillac Red Bordeaux Blend 2010

$90. Better than Boyd Cantenac and Chateau d'armailhac. More dry than the Leoville Poyferre. Has a very strong potent finish. — 7 years ago

Château Calon-Ségur

Saint-Estèphe Red Bordeaux Blend 2004

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.

Château d'Issan

Margaux Cabernet Sauvignon - Merlot Blend 1989

Troisième Cru Classé in 1855. Cantenac-Margaux. Magnum. Wednesday 8th July 2015 at The Connaught hotel. — 9 years ago

Château Prieuré-Lichine

Margaux Red Bordeaux Blend 2012

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. — 7 years ago

Broman Cellars

Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 1996

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. — 7 years ago

Château Latour

Premier Grand Cru Classé Pauillac Red Bordeaux Blend 1975

75 Margaux was lighter, more feminine. 75 Latour powerful. 66 Brane-Catenac flawed. — 8 years ago

Château Phélan Ségur

Saint-Estèphe Red Bordeaux Blend 2012

Opened for science and found it to be surprisingly open. Classic Cab/ Mer balance with unsubtle but not overwhelming oak and, a day after having a supermarket bottle of Baron de Brane with similar thoughts, makes me wonder if most Bordeaux tastes about the same, if I have a crappy palate, if we are all subject to the narcissism of small differences or all three. Thoroughly enjoyable. I feel like Guy Fieri right now. — 8 years ago

And that's a completely false comparison: even if you tried, you'll never, ever suck as bad as Fieri

Château Palmer

Margaux Red Bordeaux Blend 1983

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. — 9 years ago
