This was great but not same level as prior bottles. Perhaps a slightly off cork ? Medium dark rubi robe, nose of blackcurrant, top soil and balsam with hints of cedar. Ever so slightly reticent tannins but overall great length and good complexity. Great now, but no rush. — 21 days ago
At peak. Not great, but balanced, resolved and we emptied the bottle fast. — 21 days ago
Double decant and pour(some fine sediment). A splendid still dark magenta color with bricking. On the nose: Beautiful areomatics of blackberry, cigar box, worn leather, green vegi, bandaid(brett). Taste: savory, elegant, structured wine with some sour cherry, currants, tobacco leaf, charred earth, and a crushef rock-coffee medium finish. Sure, on the downside, but still drinks savory good tonight. — 16 days ago

Soft tannic structure. Buttery. — a day ago
Lacks complexity but its a truly excellent bottle and is singing now. Really good wine that is long lasting in bottle. Classical style. — 2 months ago

2020 vintage. Tasted several times with consistent scores. I always recommend this wine to people who start to buy Bordeaux at Cru Classé level. Cantemerle offers unapologetic elegance and great value for money. — 21 days ago
