BARON DE BRANE

GRAND VIN – MARGAUX


The name of our second wine honours Baron Jacques-Maxime de Brane, who owned the estate in the 19th century.
Blended from vats carefully selected for their suppleness, it is aged just like the First Wine, but for a 12-month period.

VINEYARD

Terroir of deep gravels and clay on the

“Terrasse” n° 3.

VINTAGE 2016

2016 was a dry year but paradoxically yields were high. Very fortunately, there was a sudden improvement in the weather during flowering.

Luck was with us again in mid-September with beneficial rain that enabled ripening to be completed.

The merlots grapes on the adjoining plots of the grand vin’s ones were particularly expressive and savoury.

Harvest dates: 22 September - 17 October.

Vines’ average age: 25 years old.

Vinification: in stainless steel and concrete vats.

Ageing: 12 months in French oak barrels, with 20%to 30% new.

BLEND

65 % Merlot

32 % Cabernet Sauvignon 3 % Cabernet Franc

TASTING

Alc. degree: 13.5 % I TA: 3.5 g/l I pH : 3.56

Dense purple colour. The nose expresses black fruit aromas such as blackberry and fleshy cherry mixed with elegant toast, smoke, vanilla aromas, and fresh notes. The palate is round, dense, and very well balanced with a beautiful tannic structure already showing silky and refined tannins. The finish is long with a very nice fruity and aromatic back palate. A wine already very silky and very promising. 2019-2030.
