Château Brane-Cantenac Margaux 2015

Incredibly dark in colour still at a decade of age. Initially slightly closed and inexpressive but begins to reveal rose, violets and jasmine after a few minutes in the glass. Floral, lifted and delicate and so fine. The palate is impeccably balanced and loaded with dark fruit and cherries. Really impressive length with fine, well-integrated tannin. A wonderful wine. Drinking window: 2025-2060. Score – 96. (Gareth Birchley, decanter.com, June 14, 2025)
