Chateau Clos Cantenac
Chateau Clos Cantenac
Clos Cantenac is a small and seductive six hectare property with carefully planted vines on an exceptional terroir of deep gravel, sand and clay over limestone situated close to the pre-historic `Megalith de Pierrefitte`. This enchanting Saint Emilion vineyard was purchased in 2006 by Martin Krajewski, previous owner of Chateau to Sours. Much effort has gone into developing Clos Cantenac from the management of the vines, to improving the vineyard architecture, and finally to renovate the ancient 200 year old winery. In 2017 Charlotte Krajewski joined the team as Technical Director and Chief Wine Maker after having spent the previous ten years working overseas in six countries and on four continents. Charlotte brings with her much accumulated knowledge and experience from around the world, yet we still continue to work in a very traditional way and proudly respect both the history and culture of the region in order to produce our fine wines. I love the mantra here and the fruit and skill has always been top notch. There is the illusive X Factor that everyone searches for and few find.` Clos Cantenac - Matthew Jukes, UK Wine Writer and Commentator
