2018 Château Cantemerle Magnum (1.5 L), a Grand Cru Classé in a large bottle

The 2018 Château Cantemerle Magnum (1.5 L) comes from the Haut-Médoc, a region where history and terroir play an important role. This wine demonstrates how a specific vintage can influence the classic Bordeaux style. Not only the fruit, but also the structure and its continued development in the bottle make it appealing to connoisseurs.

The Story of the Class of 2018

This magnum contains 1.5 liters of Château Cantemerle 2018. The estate has been classified as a Cinquième Grand Cru Classé since 1855 and is located in the Haut-Médoc. The gravelly soils are characteristic of the region. In 2018, a wet spring was followed by a warm, dry summer, allowing for the harvest of highly ripe grapes. The wine combines dark fruit with a classic Bordeaux structure. A magnum has a different ratio of wine to oxygen under the cork than a standard bottle. When stored properly, this can contribute to a more gradual aging process. The larger size is also ideal for a dinner party or for sharing the wine later with a group of wine enthusiasts.

Aroma and taste

Expect blackcurrant, blackberries, ripe cherries, cedar, and subtle spices. The flavor combines ripe fruit with body and crisp acidity. The tannins may gradually soften during bottle aging, while more complex aromas develop. The wine’s evolution depends on storage conditions.

Serving and Pairing

Serve at around 16 to 18 degrees Celsius. If necessary, let a young bottle breathe a bit. Lamb, grilled beef, and aged hard cheeses pair well with this classic Bordeaux-style wine. Take your time to savor how the wine evolves in the glass.
