2003 Margaux AOC Brio du Château Cantenac Brown, Bordeaux, France

Ripe black berries and some plums on the nose, light vegetal and smoky notes. More ripe fruit on the palate, light smoky and roasted notes, slightly astringent tannins, not particularly deep, but harmonious, fairly creamy with integrated oak, delicate herbaceous traces in the background, hint of dried flowers, gairly persistent, good finish.
