CRITIC REVIEWS
Georgina Hindle
Allspice, cedar, juniper and blackcurrants - a heady, appealing perfume. Lightly framed with gentle but mouthwatering and succulent red berry fruits mingling with firm tannins that coat the mouth in a fine layer of chalky, fruity saltiness. Attractive balance, if a little light on the mid-palate at this point, but this has a long finish and a motion of flavour from beginning to end. It feels well worked with concentration and direction. Structured and confident.

Medium to deep garnet-purple in color, the 2021 Cantemerle has pronounced herbal notes with rubber and tobacco over a core of stewed red and black plums. Light to medium-bodied, the palate is a little thin with a chewy texture and a tart, abrupt finish.
