'Brio' translates to energy and verve, and this 2021 release perfectly lives up to its name. As the esteemed second wine of Château Cantenac Brown, it delivers all the hallmark elegance of Margaux without the decades long wait. Expect a wonderfully aromatic nose of crushed raspberries, wild strawberries and subtle violet. On the palate, it's beautifully fresh and refined, with silky tannins wrapping around a core of bright red fruit and a delicate touch of cedar. It's incredibly accessible right now, making it an absolute joy to pour alongside a premium cut of beef.

Why do we love this wine?
Situated on the famous gravel plateaus of Margaux, Château Cantenac Brown is a legendary Third Growth estate instantly recognisable by its striking Tudor style architecture. The winemaking team treats 'Brio' with the exact same obsessive dedication as their flagship bottling, carefully selecting fruit from specific vineyard parcels designed to create a vibrant, early drinking style. The 2021 vintage beautifully showcases the prized terroir of the Margaux appellation, leaning into a fresh, classical profile that highlights the sheer skill of the estate. It's an outstanding way to experience the magic of one of Bordeaux's most prestigious regions at a highly approachable price.
