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 2015 Les Allées de Cantemerle is composed of 60% Cabernet Sauvignon and 40% 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.
