Score 91/100 · Drink 2018-2021, Antonio Galloni, Vinous, Feb 2018

Cantenac Brown's 2015 Alto de Cantenac Brown is bright and beautifully focused, with tons of citrus, floral and mineral flavors. The finely cut, chiseled style, with blocked malo, emphasizes energy and freshness. This is very nicely done.

The Sauvignon Blanc-dominant 2015 Alto de Cantenac Brown is brisk, dry and inviting, with plenty of citrus, green orchard fruit, mint and white flower notes. Drink this dry, steely white over the next year or two. The blocked malo style brings out the wine's freshness and overall intensity.
