Château Brane-Cantenac
Margaux
Brane embodies the heritage of a family's passion for wine, passed down for 5 generations
A STORY
In few words
In 1925, Léonce Récapet acquired the estate. Since 1992, Henri Lurton, his great-grandson, has been running it with passion, as a true visionary and guardian of this exceptional terroir.
In 2022, he passed the ownership to his children while remaining at the helm of its management.
Together, they continue a legacy of excellence, with a sustainable and nature-respectful approach. Each vintage reflects their philosophy: creating elegant, balanced wines imbued with authenticity.
Deeply rooted in history and shaped by the dedication of its artisans, Brane-Cantenac captivates with its depth, refinement, and generosity.
A timeless wine, harmoniously combining tradition and modernity.
