This second wine comes mainly from the château's young
vines, and is made like its elder brother. Les Allées de
Cantemerle has the same personality as the grand vin,
but a shorter ageing potential.

Tasting
The almost-black color offers stunning proof of the wine's youth, and its certain ability to age for several years more.
Still, its well-controlled
power that is both solid and elegant makes it a marvelous match with a
roast chicken or a cheese soufflé. Decanting before serving will bring
out the fine aromas of black fruit, cedar and tobacco that are typical of
the Cantemerle terroir.
