The estate&#8217;s 60 hectares of vineyards are spread over the prestigious Margaux and Cantenac plateaux. <\/p>\n<p>In 2011, Ch\u00e2teau Cantenac Brown added a new wine to its range: AltO, a dry white wine made from Sauvignon Blanc and S\u00e9millon grapes. AltO is a smooth, mineral, vibrant wine. It is a gastronomic wine, designed for the pleasures of the table. Elegant and refined, AltO pays tribute to the art of music and completes the Cantenac Brown range.   <\/p>\n<p>The S\u00e9millon and Sauvignon Blanc grapes are harvested on September 9 and 10. Vinification is by slow pressing under inert gas, with fermentation in barrels. Ageing takes place in 10% new French oak barrels and 90% one-wine barrels.  <\/p>\n<p>AltO is marked by notes of citrus, lime and nectarine. Round and elegant on the palate, marked by freshness and liveliness. It is sustained by a fine tension.  <\/p>\n<p>AltO de Cantenac Brown 2021 is available from wine merchants for 19.60 euros ex-VAT.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1811201\" src=\"https:\/\/www.luxsure.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/AltO-de-Cantenac-Brown-2021-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1707\" height=\"2560\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.luxsure.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/AltO-de-Cantenac-Brown-2021-scaled.jpg 1707w, https:\/\/www.luxsure.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/AltO-de-Cantenac-Brown-2021-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.luxsure.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/AltO-de-Cantenac-Brown-2021-683x1024.jpg 683w, https:\/\/www.luxsure.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/AltO-de-Cantenac-Brown-2021-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.luxsure.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/AltO-de-Cantenac-Brown-2021-600x900.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.luxsure.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/AltO-de-Cantenac-Brown-2021-1024x1536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.luxsure.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/AltO-de-Cantenac-Brown-2021-1365x2048.jpg 1365w, https:\/\/www.luxsure.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/AltO-de-Cantenac-Brown-2021-1920x2880.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/www.luxsure.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/AltO-de-Cantenac-Brown-2021-1170x1755.jpg 1170w, https:\/\/www.luxsure.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/AltO-de-Cantenac-Brown-2021-585x877.jpg 585w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1707px) 100vw, 1707px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ch\u00e2teau Cantenac Brown is a third Margaux Grand Cru Class\u00e9, located in the heart of the Margaux appellation in the M\u00e9doc.
