The 2022 Boyd-Cantenac has a very attractive nose: clean and pure black fruit, crushed stone and light graphite scents percolating through with time. Great definition. The palate is medium-bodied with grainy tannins. Good depth, quite sapid in the mouth, though it cuts away swiftly on the finish. Otherwise, this is a perfectly decent Margaux that deserves two or three years in bottle. Tasted blind at the Southwold tasting in London.In BondSG$396.00 -

The 2023 Boyd-Cantenac has quite a concentrated nose, blackberry, melted tar and light gravely scents, just missing the delineation of its peers at the moment. The palate is soft and rounded on the entry. Decent weight, a little oaky, though I am seeking more complexity and terroir expression to come through on the finish that, again, is just a bit softish. Not bad at all, though I would just need to see more grip and backbone.In BondSG$304.00 -

(12x75cl) 1998
Vinous - Neal Martin (90)
The 1998 Brane-Cantenac is a vintage that has been a little variable from bottle to bottle over the years. I am taken by the well-defined, taut and focused nose, where vigorous blackberry and cedar aromas commingle with sous-bois and tobacco. The palate is clean and fresh with gentle grip and rounded, slightly suppler tannins than previous vintages. Sour cherry, rooibos and bay leaf linger on the finish with white pepper on the aftertaste. This is definitely one of the best bottles that I have encountered. Tasted at the Brane-Cantenac vertical at the château in September 2025.In BondSG$1,695.00 -
