April 10, 2024 - This wine is not complex. But it’s a good wine for the price. Some earth and red fruit is definitely noticeable. There’s not much tannins left so I don’t see this wine improving but I think this wine could last at this stage for at least a few more years.

April 8, 2024 - PnP'd one bottle (magnum) and it felt thin for the first hour.
Decanted a different bottle the following day for a few hours and it showed fuller. So I do suggest a decant at this point.
Tannins are fully resolved. Classic but slightly muted Cantemerle flavors and aromas of blackberry, leather, a touch of cedar and the like.
Not a particularly great vintage for Cantemerle due to lacking a bit of acidity/back bone but still a pleasant wine to drink now. -
