Established in the 18th Century, at which time it was known as “Gorce”, this large estate is located on the best gravelly outcrops of Cantenac. A century before the 1855 classification, it was considered one of the best 2nd growths in the Medoc. In 1833, Baron de Brane (called “Napoleon of the Vines”) sold his estate in Papilla, Brane-Mouton, and bought Gorce, which he renamed Brane-Cantenac, ten years later. Lucien Lurton’s grandfather acquired the estate in 1925, and was succeeded by his grandson in 1956. Lucien Lurton’s son, Henri, currently manages the estate and puts all his efforts into producing a great Margaux in each and every vintage, reflecting Brane-Cantenac’s superb vineyard soil
