Note di degustazione
The 2016 Cantemerle has a ripe, juicy bouquet with blackberry, black olive and blueberry fruit, quite floral in style. The palate is medium-bodied with firm tannins, quite high-toned in terms of acidity, sapid, with a welcome briny finish. More-ish and great value. Yes please! Tasted blind at the Southwold 10-Year-On tasting.

Fragrant concentration of earth, violets and iris flowers immediately apparent, continuing on the palate with black tea, cedar, liquorice root, blackberry, slate, campfire. 50hl/h yield. You could open now with a long carafe, but it will continue to age for another decade at least. Great stuff. 40% new oak for ageing, Eric Boissenot consultant, Philippe Dambrine estate director.
The 2016 Cantemerle has a comparatively opulent bouquet of black cherries, boysenberry and light violet scents, touches of cedar and sous-bois emerging with time. The palate is medium-bodied with grainy tannins. There is a touch of greenness here, although it does come across harmonious and there is a pleasing spiciness toward the finish. Fine. Tasted blind at the Southwold tasting.
Tasted blind. Almost jammy it’s so rich on the nose! Very dry finish. A bit austere. (JR)
