Château Brane-Cantenac sits in a prime position on the plateau of Cantenac and makes full use of its excellent terroir. No doubt something that Baron de Brane was aware of and along with his viticultural talents were the reasons behind the estates rise to fame. Now tended by the Lurton family, the wines continue to be in great hands. Of the 2009 vintage, Henri Lurton is known to have said that the winery was enveloped in aromas of raspberry and blackberry even before fermentation began! Even though fruit ripeness is an obvious trait, the balance and structure of the wine are also clearly evident which will see the wine age for a decade or two more.

Product Description: Depth, structure and classical Margaret River character define this flagship Cabernet Sauvignon from one of the region’s pioneering estates. The 2021 Pierro VR Cabernet Sauvignon is sourced from mature vines planted in the celebrated Willyabrup subregion, where maritime influence and gravelly loam soils create ideal conditions for Cabernet Sauvignon of concentration and balance. “VR,” meaning Vieilles Réserves, signifies the estate’s most select parcels and oldest vineyard material, reserved for wines of exceptional quality and ageing potential. Crafted by Michael Dhillon, the wine reflects a meticulous and low-intervention approach that prioritises vineyard expression, textural refinement and longevity. The 2021 vintage delivered excellent growing conditions in Margaret River, producing fruit with intense flavour definition, natural acidity and finely structured tannins. In the glass, the wine reveals layered blackcurrant and dark plum fruit intertwined with cedar, graphite, dried herbs and subtle earthy complexity. Extended maturation in high-quality French oak contributes polish and structure while allowing the purity of the fruit to remain central. The palate is concentrated yet composed, balancing richness with freshness and savoury detail. Fine tannins provide shape and persistence without heaviness, carrying the wine through a long and poised finish.
