In a few words ...
An English-style château The estate was created in 1754 when "messire jacques boyd", a noble squire, purchased the land. At the time, the Boyd family was known as an important Scottish lineage, having emigrated to Bordeaux in the 18th century like many of its compatriots. Half a century later, the family sold the vineyard - which was named Cantenac's 3rd Cru Classé in 1776 under their aegis - to John Lewis Brown, married to Jacques Boyd's granddaughter. And above all, he built this magnificent building, which has become a landmark on the Medoc chateau route. After his bankruptcy, the two estates were gradually separated, creating Château Brown on one side and the future Boyd-Cantenac on the other. In 1860, Château Brown became the property of Armand Lalande, deputy mayor of Bordeaux, who bought Château Léoville-Poyferré, 2nd Cru Classé in Saint Julien, five years later. It was he who gave Château Cantenac-Brown its definitive name and, after extensive work, obtained the rank of 3rd Cru Classé following the official classification at the end of the 19th century. After a succession of owners, numerous investments were made to renovate the winery and improve the drainage system in the vineyards, before the Château was bought by the Halabi family in 2005. For decades, josé sanfins has been the technical director of this vineyard located at the entrance to departmental road n°2, known as the "route des châteaux", which serves the most prestigious Medoc crus from the south of margaux to the north of saint-estèphe with château calon ségur. Robert Parker regularly highlights the quality of his work, as in the 2010 vintage, when he awarded the vintage a score of 94+/100, describing "the nose as extraordinary" and attributing "spectacular length to the finish".
