winemaker's notes:
A very complex nose dominated by red fruit aromas (raspberry, black berry) expressing great maturity. Notes of vanilla et spices (white pepper). Showing a beautiful bouquet when aerated. A good solid 'attack' and fullness in the mouth. Gives the impression of a round and powerful wine. Finesse and elegance of the tannins are very typical of Brane. The mid-palate is dense, while the finish is long, with rich back-whiffs of vivid fruit.
alcohol by volume:
13.0%
critical acclaim:
"Very modern and polished in style, this wine goes for the soft, juicy fruit characters. The tannins are sweet, equally soft, already delicious in character, finishing with smoky cranberry and black currant flavors. "

Wine Enthusiast
"Moderately saturated red-ruby. Raspberry, coffee, sexy spices and smoky torrefaction on the nose. Supple and fine-grained, in an easygoing, rather plump style. Offers a restrained sweetness and noteworthy elegance. Not hugely ripe but has class. Finishes with broad, dusty, slightly dry tannins. Range: 87-89"

International Wine Cellar
"This blend of 53% Cabernet Sauvignon, 39% Merlot, and 8% Cabernet Franc offers complex aromas of mint, black currants, cherries, underbrush, and forest floor. Deliciously ripe with a soft texture, medium body, and considerable seductive powers, this beauty should be enjoyed over the next 7-8 years.
