Fidèles à leurs habitudes, et toujours sous la houlette de Monsieur Philippe Duval, son président, nos amis de la SAQ, ont à nouveau organisé un voyage de visites et de dégustations dans le bordelais et se sont arrêtés à Brane!

True to their habits, and still under the leadership of Mr. Philippe Duval, its president, our friends from SAQ once again organized a trip filled with visits and tastings in the Bordeaux region, and they stopped at Brane!

As always, the visit was fun and entertaining…the Québécois enjoy the good things in life and are excellent tasters and it is always a delight for us to host them.
This time, we’d planned two surprises for them – a Brane 1953 and a Brane 1964!

In return, as an expression of thanks, Michel St Jean, photographer (and business manager!) gave two extraordinary extra-large photos to Henri Lurton. You can admire his works on his website http://michelstjeanphoto.com/about/ -and check out his series on wild geese at http://www.flickr.com/photos/43013025@N07/sets/72157622459353617/

LUXURY BOXES FOR GRAND CRU CLASSES

Elegant holiday packaging isn't reserved for Champagne only!

To celebrate the end of the year holidays, Henri Lurton decided that his Château Brane Cantenac bottles would be sold in a case resembling a perfume or jewelry box. So we created special boxes made from exotic wood. Utterly simple and resolutely modern, they are made of sapele by the box-maker Marie-Louise in Bordeaux and sold exclusively by LAVINIA, boulevard de la Madeleine in Paris, www.lavinia.com.

750 ml bottles are available for the 96, 2000, 2005 and 2006 vintages and Magnum bottles are available for 2006. The 2007 vintage of our second wine, Baron de Brane, is also sold in a holiday box.

Prices incl. VAT:

Baron de Brane 2007: €40

Château Brane-Cantenac (750ml)  1996: €150, 2000: €147, 2005:€ 95, 2006: €69
