Beautiful dark purple colour. The finely woody nose is enhanced with aromas of ripe red currant and cranberry, hints of cedar and black pepper. On the palate the wine is rounded. It evolves on a full and silky mid-palate. The tannic expression asserts itself on the finish which is dense and long. A gourmet wine suitable for aging.

Tight and polished with a beautiful center palate and density. Full-bodied, ripe and polished. Really delicious fruit to this. Strawberries and currants abound. Wonderful second wine of Brane.

Powerful tannin, with a bite that is pretty ferocious. There are good fruits underneath, with deep cassis and bilberry notes. Good-quality but broad-shouldered.

Drinking Window 2023 - 2036

The 2018 Baron de Brane is rich and luscious in the glass. Succulent red cherry and ripe red plum fruit are pushed forward in a soft, racy Margaux that will drink beautifully upon release. The radiance of the vintage comes through nicely, and yet there is a good bit of freshness as well. The blend is 60% Merlot, 34% Cabernet Sauvignon, 4% Cabernet Franc and 2% Carmenère.
