Good to know: The 2010 vintage is uncannily similar to the previous vintage: a dry year but with water reserves that had been replenished the previous fall. The cool nights of a pleasant summer imparted full aromatic expression and unusually high levels of phenolic compounds. The climate in 2010 corresponded marvellously to Brane’s terroir. The plateau’s clay-like gravel subsoil can give the vines the humidity the grapes need to mature in conditions of extreme dryness. Aromatic expression also being a major quality of this terroir, it was particularly rich at Brane this year. The severity of the blend may seem surprising, but it was the key to a perfect balance...
Deep and concentrated red color. The nose presents aromas of blackcurrant, bilberry, hawthorn, redcurrant jelly, forest floor. In the mouth, the very fine tannins mark little, despite a remarkable power and density. Beautiful freshness linked to fresh and energetic fruit. Very good length which ends with magnificent spicy notes. Velvet texture.
Stunning Brane-Cantenac that has a long future ahead of it.
