Château Cantemerle is a highly reliable, crowd-pleasing 5th Growth in the Haut-Médoc, universally praised for its value. The 2011 vintage is classically styled and firmly structured, and it has now beautifully entered its peak drinking window. It reveals an engaging, mature bouquet of ripe cassis, dark plum, sweet cigar box, cedar, and subtle earthy undertones. Medium to full-bodied, the palate is perfectly resolved and harmonious, with soft, rounded tannins and a savory, elegant finish. A superb, versatile claret.
