Critic reviews
"The 2014 Brane-Cantenac has an upfront, opulent bouquet with vibrant black fruit, touches of meat juices, mint and potpourri. One of the more complex aromatics within the Margaux flight. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannins, lightly spiced with a dash of black pepper. This builds in the mouth towards a structured and impressive finish. This should age well in bottle and is a splendid display and one of this vintage's best values. Tasted blind at the Southwold 10-Year-On tasting."
Neal Martin, February 2024, Vinous.com

"The 2014 Brane-Cantenac is a burly, powerful wine that will need quite a bit of time to come into its own, although it may never be particularly refined. Today the tannins are clenched and imposing, especially for the wine’s medium-bodied frame. Bright red stone fruit, white pepper and floral notes are some of the signatures."
Antonio Galloni, February 2017, Vinous.com

"Tasted blind. Deep garnet. Ripe and evolved dark fruits though still fresh. Acidity is pretty high and accentuates the tannins yet the fruit is there at the core. I went back to this and raised my score half a point. Needs time but everything is in place for a longer life than for many 2014s."
