  Chateau Cantenac Brown ligger i Margaux kommunen og er en Grand Cru Classe med andre vekst av 1855 klassifiseringen i Bordeaux.
  
  Fin fylling, til nederst i halsen.
  
  Luftet i bredbunnet karaffel ca 45 minutter.
  
  50% Merlot, 40% Cabernet Sauvignon og 10% Cabernet Franc
  
  Dyp og tett mrk rd farge med klart brunskjr og mursteinsrd kant.
  
  Fint utviklet og godt moden vin med duft av mrke sorte br, solbrekstrakt, bjrnebr, vanilje, gammel rulletobakk, tjre, treverk, jordlige toner med stall og halm, samt noe krydder og urter.
  
  Konsentrert, nyansert og kompleks vin med god fasthet og et fyldig anslag med godt modne og litt trre stvete tanniner.
  
  En litt for dvass syre styrer munnflelsen, men en aroma av fortsatt godt moden frukt balanserer vinen glimrende og gir en lang rustikk og god ettersmak.
  
  91/100 poeng og 4.3
  
  Servert til reinsdyrmedaljong, rotmospurre, smrstekte kantarell og ovnsbakt rdlk og poteter med rdvinsgele og viltsaus.

  Corroded capsule. Cork was compromised. Zachys should've not allowed this to be sold at auction.

  Past its prime but not over the hill. Cassis, mushrooms, leather, cedar.

  Thank you for the bottle, Alan, it brought lots of good memories:
  first date with LC and that the bottle can't be judged by the way the cork looks.
  Good juice for the money.
