Recognized as a Fifth Growth in the 1855 Bordeaux Classification, the château is renowned for producing elegant and well-balanced wines. Les Allées de Cantemerle is the second wine of Château Cantemerle, crafted primarily from the estate’s younger vines. This cuvée mirrors the character of the grand vin but is designed for earlier consumption, offering a more approachable profile in its youth. \u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eGrape Varietals\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eThe 2010 Les Allées de Cantemerle is composed of 75% Cabernet Sauvignon and 25% Merlot. \u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eVinification \u0026amp; Aging Methods\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eThe winemaking process for Les Allées de Cantemerle involves traditional methods similar to those employed for the grand vin.

As it ages more quickly, Les Allées de Cantemerle is generally ready to be consumed within several years of the vintage. The 2010 vintage, in particular, is considered one of the finest of the new century in Bordeaux, with silky tannins of great maturity, showing great finesse and elegance. This wine is still young, a bit reserved, with a noble structure which leaves a pure impression on the finish. It can continue to age but is already marvelous with a blanquette or pot au feu. \u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p3\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Magnum","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47922404786390,"sku":null,"price":188.0,"currency_code":"HKD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0809\/5465\/4934\/files\/LesAlleesdeCantemerle2010.png?v=1773670067","url":"https:\/\/www.pinotera.com\/products\/les-allees-de-cantemerle-2010","provider":"Pinotera Wines \u0026 Spirits","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
