1997

The 15% of Petit Verdot in the final assemblage represents a record proportion in Cantemerle’s wine. It must be acknowledged that this vintage was not the easiest of the decade, with a summer whose unstable weather constantly alternated between thunderstorms and heat waves. The wine is ready for drinking now, and will probably not gain anything from further aging. Light and perfumed, it shows a floral bouquet and a slender body, with supple tannins which show traces of a difficult vintage.
