Les Licornes De Cantenac Brown Margaux 2016 (Second Label of Château Cantenac Brown)

From the storied Château Cantenac Brown, a Third Growth (Troisième Cru Classé) estate of the 1855 Bordeaux Classification, comes its refined second wine — Les Licornes de Cantenac Brown. The château, founded in the early 19th century by John-Lewis Brown, a Scottish-born artist and visionary, is one of the most architecturally striking in Margaux, with its Tudor-style façade symbolizing both heritage and creativity.

The name “Les Licornes” (The Unicorns) reflects the emblem of the Brown family and the estate’s enduring pursuit of rarity and grace. Crafted with the same care as the Grand Vin, but sourced from younger vines and select parcels, this wine captures the signature silkiness, perfume, and balance that define the Margaux appellation. The 2016 vintage, one of the greatest of the decade, offers remarkable harmony — power and purity wrapped in velvet.
