Neal Martin
The 2005 Cantenac Brown is another vintage that I have not tasted for a number of years. It is very pure on the nose with copious blackberry and raspberry scents, sous-bois and just a hint of cough candy. This is evolving nicely. The palate is well balanced with mellowing tannins that frame the minty black fruit, spicebox and (again) just that hint of menthol that enlivens the finish. This is an excellent Margaux, drinking perfectly now, but it has the substance to last 20 years, possibly more. Excellent. Tasted at the Cantenac Brown vertical at the chateau. 92 points
