Haut-Médoc 5ème Cru Classé AOC 2019 Château Cantemerle

Château Cantemerle is one of the oldest properties in Haut-Médoc and is now managed by the SMABTP insurance group, which also includes other wineries in the area.

The grapes are vinified in a combination of steel, concrete and wooden barrels of varying sizes. Following the malolactic fermentation in steel, the wine ages 12-16 months in French oak barrels, of which 40% -50% new.

Of a deep ruby red color, the wine reveals intense aromas of fruit, black currant and blueberry, notes of fresh grass and tobacco to the nose. The sip is satisfying, full and characterized by a great freshness and well integrated tannins. Long finish.

The wine is perfect in combination with roasted lamb shoulder or a succulent grilled entrecôte.
