Ch Les Carmes Haut-Brion ‘Le C des Carmes’ 2019

Château Les Carmes Haut-Brion is a wine that harmonizes radiance, power, and depth. This stunning expression of Pessac-Léognan terroir has a hefty amount of Cabernet Franc, which is unusual for the Left Bank. The property is currently helmed by Patrice Pichet, who coveted the vineyards for many years. After acquiring the property in 2010, he spared no expense in renovations as he wanted Château Les Carmes Haut-Brion to express the fullest potential of its terroir. Château Les Carmes Haut-Brion is, without a doubt, an extraordinary producer in its own class.

Tasting notes:
A nose so fresh, so floral (lavender), so seductive, you can almost smell the salinity. A very fluid mouth, quite well rolled up with hints of ink. An opulent wine that needs a little time to open up. We end with accents of blue fruits, sap and blackcurrant leaves.
