Cantenac Brown BriO
Jan 01, 2018
BriO de Cantenac Brown is a new wine, "born" in 2001.
The blend between Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and Merlot is different for each vintage but the Merlot percentage is usually more important than the one in the Château Cantenac Brown.
The lots for BriO often need more work than Cantenac Brown: more leaf pruning, some green harvest, for example on the young vines, to help them to deal with the weather conditions.
The 12 months-long ageing in 20% to 25% new oak barrels is traditional.
BriO wine you drink before, during and after a meal; just for your pleasure.
