What is in this wine, and where it grows
The wine
Chateau Cantenac Brown 2021 Wine (75cl) is recorded as a 2021 other wine made from Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot in Bordeaux, France.
Typical grape profile: Cabernet Sauvignon — Blackcurrant, cedar, graphite; ages well, especially in Bordeaux blends; Merlot — Plum, black cherry, chocolate; softer and rounder than Cabernet Sauvignon. The finished bottle can differ with vintage and winemaking.
The vineyard evidence
No verified vineyard or named parcel is linked yet. BottlePicker therefore does not assign a soil, elevation or site temperature to this bottle from its regional name alone.
Soil structure and vine density
No site-specific soil or planting-density record is available for this bottle.
Growing-temperature context
For general cultivar-level heat guidance, see the Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot growing profiles. BottlePicker does not apply a generic range to this bottle without a verified vineyard link.
Official geographic-register context
What the official register confirms about Bordeaux
BottlePicker found an exact region-name match in an official wine or spirits register. This establishes useful regional context; it does not by itself prove that this particular bottle is entitled to the designation. Check the producer label and specification for that claim.

Source-supplied bottle description
Retained as supporting identification copy; the structured facts and evidence links above are kept separate.
Drink it now or cellar for up to 25 years. It is recommended to decant it for an hour. Located in Cantenac in the southern area of the Margaux denomination, in Bordeaux, Chateau Cantenac Brown has approximately 42 hectares of vineyards distributed between the various municipalities of Cantenac, Arsac, Soussans, Margaux, and Labarde. Here the terroir is the typical Medoc gravel, made of quartz which guarantees excellent drainage and reflects the sun's rays during the day while at night it releases the stored heat, favoring the complete maturation of the Cabernet Sauvignon. Chateau Cantenac Brown is a blend of predominantly Cabernet Sauvignon grapes with additions of Merlot, which gives color and softness. After fermentation, the finished wine is aged in French oak barrels (of which 60% are new and the rest one-year-old). It is an elegant and fine wine that shows extraordinary aging capacity. Its aroma is intense and broad with fragrant fruity notes of black cherries, plums, cassis, and blueberry followed by aromas of cocoa and hints of herbs and slate. On the palate, it is smooth, rich, and concentrated with supple tannins and a juicy fruit intensity. The body is medium and the acidity is perfectly balanced. It is a dynamic wine with a long and elegant finish. Have it with a hearty Beef Bourguignon.
Evidence boundary
This page combines the recorded bottle identity with linked source records. An exact region-name match supplies regional context but does not prove that this bottle carries the protected designation. A vineyard is only shown as bottle-level evidence when a wine-to-vineyard link exists. BottlePicker does not infer a vineyard, soil or site climate from a retailer title.
