Other reviews...
The 2015 Château Brown has an opulent bouquet with sensual red cherries, crushed strawberry and raspberry preserve aromas. The oak here is nicely integrated. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannin, a fine thread of acidity, and impressive weight and body in the body. It needs to develop a little more nuance and complexity on the finish, yet it is harmonious and feels lithe. A seductive Château Brown for sure, one that will give at least a decade of pleasure and will probably be more approachable than some of its peers.

Light and fresh, featuring gentle cassis bush and bay accents amid a core of cherry and raspberry fruit. A little shy on depth but pretty, with a silky finish.

Silky but taut tannins - a superb example from this château. Vanilla bean oak spice and no trace of dryness; elegance and balance with a sexy flourish. Medium drinking, great pleasure. 70% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot.

Blackberry, stone, blueberry and citrus rind aromas and flavors. Full body, chewy tannins and a long finish. Solid young wine.

This balanced wine is soft and ripe yet fresh, with medium acidity. Juicy blackberry flavors lend a richness to the palate, framed by soft tannins.
