Baron de Brane (Château Brane Cantenac) Margaux 2021 i trækasse

"93 points.” – Wine Align

“93 points. This from 2021 is remarkably substantial of fruit. The tannins are quite fine here and the quality high from a really perfumed Margaux of that classic purple fruit.” – Michael Godel

“93 point. En meget frisk vin, der fra første færd skilter med sin oprindelse i Margaux via sin mere feminine version af Bordeaux-udtrykket. Delikatesse, finesse, finhed og struktur går hånd i hånd med mineralitet og diskret bærsødme” – Vinbladet

”92 point. It's crafted in a classic Margaux style, which is to say focused on perfume and finesse…” – Markus del Monego, MW

"Fantastisk godt køb." - René Langdahl (tidl. Årg.)

Historien om Château Brane Cantenac starter allerede i 1600-tallet, under navnet Domaine Guilhem. Over de næste 200 år stiger vinens anseelse så vildt, at Baron de Brane i 1830’erne dropper det nuværende Mouton-Rothschild for at købe og lægge navn til Brane-Cantenac (!) 22 år senere får vinen status af 2. Cru Classé.

Brane-Cantenac har været dygtigt drevet af Lurton-familien siden 1925, men det er Henri Lurton, der siden 1992 har løftet Le Grand Vin op i ren verdensklasse. Hyldet af James Lawther MW som et TOP 10 Bordeaux Cru Classé-køb!

Ligesom Le Grand Vin er også Baron de Brane en value af format... bedste andenvin i Bordeaux? Bedøm selv, du har Danmarks bedste smagegaranti i ryggen.

93/100 Michael Godel
“Barone is the second wine for Henri Lurton and his Château Brane-Cantenac, aged in barriques, 20 percent new for approximately two years. Coming from two terraces, three and five (primarily) levels of the plateau not only recognized by the estate but also other Margaux estates that share these levels of terroir. This from 2021 is remarkably substantial of fruit, much more so than the Margaux de Brane but they are both easy and lovely wines. The tannins are quite fine here and the quality high from a really perfumed Margaux of that classic purple fruit. Only this appellation carries this quality and character, neither red, nor blue nor black but a mélange of all three. Drink 2023-2028. Tasted September 2023.”

93/100 Vinbladet
“Næse med betydelig intensitet og dejlig rankhed, hvor det mere er grafit end bær, der kommer til udtryk i frugtigheden. Generelt lidt tilknappet, hvad der får egetræet til dominere en smule over den ellers rige frugt, men det er sikkert kun hvalpefedt. En meget frisk vin, der fra første færd skilter med sin oprindelse i Margaux via sin mere feminine version af Bordeaux-udtrykket. Delikatesse, finesse, finhed og struktur går hånd i hånd med mineralitet og diskret bærsødme. Gem gerne denne vin et par år eller fem.”

”The second wine of Brane Cantenac, though more of a terroir than barrel selection, generally from the sandier parcels that yield lighter and softer wines. It's crafted in a classic Margaux style, which is to say focused on perfume and finesse, with a little more depth and structure than the 'entry' Margaux de Brane, aged in barriques of which 20% is new, subtlely detectable, already well integrated. I like the freshness and refinement on offer, here, a very perfumed and elegant style of Margaux. Tannins are fine, light and refined, acids are zesty and length is very good to excellent. Toute en finesse, a wine to be enjoyed more in youth, over the next decade or so. And this is a rather unique vintage relative to the last 10 years, a return to a more classic style of Bordeaux, like back in the 1990s, a vintage in which terroir really mattered, as well as a chateaux's resources and the ability to make strict selections. Tasted September 2023.”

92/100 Markus del Monego
”Dark purple colour with violet hue and almost black core. Elegant nose with fragrant and pure fruit, hints of aromatic herbs, subtle oak. On the palate very juicy with pure fruit, fine acidity, well structured and ripe tannins, good aromatic length.”

Fresh currants, red cherries, white pepper and a hint of hibiscus, stones and grilled bell pepper. Succulent and medium-weighted on the palate with sappy red fruit and a fine, medium-length. Not intense nor very complex, but this shows elegance and vibrancy from the vintage. Drink now.

90/100 Vinous
”The 2021 Baron de Brane is a very pretty, juicy second wine from Brane-Cantenac. Supple Merlot fruit drives this racy, open-knit offering. Dark cherry, plum, new leather, licorice, spice and a hint of new oak are front and center. The 2021 is impeccable balanced and delicious.

90/100 Crister Byklum
”Ruby. Blackberries, anise, spices, fruit driven nose. Fresh acidity, ripe tannins, anise, red fruits, spices, liqourice, leaner, good length.”

"Beautiful fragrance, herbs, blossoms, mint, including a mix of dark and red berries, feminine, seductive Château. Slim on the palate, precise, clear and pure, very delicate fruit, perfectly dosed tannins, it's a ballet dance, fresh, lively, balanced and with race. Simply terrific for a «second wine»."

92/100 Antonio Galloni
"The 2019 Baron de Brane is a gorgeous second wine. Succulent black cherry, plum, spice and leather are front and center. This racy Margaux offers a compelling interplay of bright red-toned fruit and silky contours. Drink it over the next handful of years. Tasted two times."

92/100 Izak Litwar
" A gorgeous nose of black cherries/blueberries, aromatic and dense. Fine elegance on the palate, creamy berries and sweet tannins to balance them, silky texture and delicious fruity finish. Fine second label of Brane Cantenac. 92p."

SMÆK-FOR-SKILLINGEN - René Langdahl
"Utrolig rød bærfrugt, merlotpræget og berusende, spiller på friskhed og saftighed, men uden at tabe margaux-finesse. Fantastisk godt køb."

Nyd den til steaks, lam, lyst kød, simremad, fuglevildt, svamperetter og modne oste. Server ved 16-18°C
