Château Cantemerle Haut-Médoc 2016 is an elegant Fifth Growth (Cinquième Grand Cru Classé) Bordeaux from one of the Médoc's most historic estates. Situated on the gravelly soils of the southern Haut-Médoc, Château Cantemerle has earned a reputation for producing refined, Cabernet Sauvignon-led wines that combine aromatic finesse, silky tannins, and exceptional ageing potential.
The outstanding 2016 Bordeaux vintage is widely regarded as one of the greatest in recent decades, producing wines of remarkable precision, freshness, and structure. Château Cantemerle 2016 beautifully expresses the estate's signature style, offering layers of cassis, blackberry, cedar, graphite, and subtle floral notes with impressive elegance and balance.
