In the Middle Ages, the château of Cantemerle, seat of the jurisdiction of the same name, bordered the Garonne River and made up part of the line of fortifications that defended the banks of the Médoc region, just over half a mile from the present château.

The second wine of Château Cantemerle, 5th Grand Cru Classé in 1855, Les Allées de Cantemerle comes from the young vines of the estate, and benefits from the same care as its elder. 

Intense colour, ranging from ruby ​​to garnet.

Notes of black fruit with blackcurrant and blackberry, followed by empyreumatic aromas that vary between vanilla, roasting and a hint of cinnamon.

Frank attack, consistent mouth, lively finish. All the qualities of the vintage are united. The aromas of tobacco and blackcurrant illustrate the personality of the Cantemerle terroir well.
