About
1855 Grand Cru Classe – 3rd Growth
Chateau Cantenac Brown, the only Tudor-style castle in the Medoc, was built by a Scotsman, John Lewis Brown, who gave the chateau his name, as it was accustomed in the early 18th century.
Today, the chateau is managed by the French family Le Lous, who has been improving the vineyards and adding new parcels since they acquired the chateau in December 2019.
