Wine: 2000 Chateau Canuet Bordeaux



Review: I've often thought about getting a list of all the Chateau in the Margaux region and checking off which ones I have tried, then using the rest to create a shopping list. Chateau Canuet is the second growth of Chateau Cantenac-brown (well, was, they have since renamed it to Brio du Chateau Cantenac Brown).

The 2000 vintage of this wine is a blend of 75% Cabernet Sauvignon, 17% Merlot and 8% Cabernet Franc. This is a complex wine with a deep purple color and strong tannins. Hit had aromas of blackberry and a strong peppery taste. It lasted a long time on the palette with a surprisingly smooth finish. A very good wine.

Price: $40

Grade: 90
