The estate is ranked a fifth growth in the 1855 classification of the Médoc and Graves. The château's grand vin is Cabernet Sauvignon-dominant, with smaller amounts of Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot, and is made in a structured but fruit-driven style.It is one of only two estates in the 1855 Classification to be subject to an amendment. The other – Château Mouton-Rothschild – was famously promoted to the first growths (from a second growth) in 1973, following much political lobbying on the part of owner Philippe de Rothschild.Many of Cantemerle's vineyards were pulled out during the two world wars, and were replanted in the 1980s. This expanded the vineyard area from 20 hectares (50 acres) to 90 hectares (220 acres) by 1999.The soil in Cantemerle's vineyards is a mixture of silica and gravel. This is reasonably poor, and causes the vines to struggle, resulting in grapes with high levels of aromatic concentration. The vines, the majority of which are Cabernet Sauvignon, are on average 30 years old.Château Cantemerle's second wine, Les Allées de Cantemerle, is produced in a more approachable style than the grand vin.\u003cbr\u003e","published_at":"2023-03-08T16:23:24-05:00","created_at":"2023-02-27T09:04:31-05:00","vendor":"CaskCartel.com","type":"Wine","tags":["Country_France","nini2702","other_french wine","Other_Wine","Producer_Château Cantemerle","Region_Bordeaux","Source_Bestofwines0223","Type_Red Wine","Varietal_Bordeaux Blend Red"],"price":34999,"price_min":34999,"price_max":34999,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":42807394599050,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":false,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"2009 | Château Cantemerle | Haut-Medoc","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":34999,"weight":12247,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":"","requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[],"quantity_rule":{"min":1,"max":null,"increment":1}}],"images":["\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/80_25302334-19c5-4721-b555-abe451943da8.png?v=1677506708"],"featured_image":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/80_25302334-19c5-4721-b555-abe451943da8.png?v=1677506708","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":" 2009 | Château Cantemerle | Haut-Medoc at CaskCartel.com","id":24297765306506,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.383,"height":881,"width":337,"src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/80_25302334-19c5-4721-b555-abe451943da8.png?v=1677506708"},"aspect_ratio":0.383,"height":881,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/80_25302334-19c5-4721-b555-abe451943da8.png?v=1677506708","width":337}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003ch2\u003eRed Wine: 2009 | Château Cantemerle | Haut-Medoc\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis broad, fleshy style delivers toasty spice and tobacco notes up front, followed by dark cocoa, crushed plum and mulled blackberry fruit flavors.
