Saint-Julien-nabo med Château Lagrange og Château Beychevelle lige rundt om hjørnet... Definitionen på et SMART-BUY!

Château La Tour Carnets historie går helt tilbage til 1100-tallet, og slottet hører således til blandt Médoc-regionens ældste. Châteauet er 1855-klassificeret som 4. Grand Cru Classé og har siden 1999 været ejet af en af Bordeaux’ helt store vinkøbmænd, Bernard Magrez. Slottet er ideelt beliggende nær grænsen til Saint-Julien, hvor Château Lagrange og Château Beychevelle meget sigende for terroirets kvalitet er blandt de nærmeste naboer. Markernes beliggenhed på varmeabsorberende og veldrænede grusbanker giver få, små og smagskoncentrerede druer.

Frugten sorteres ad hele 3 omgange. Først i marken, så manuelt og optisk i vineriet. Lanceringen af 2. vinen ”Les Douves” i 1989 har ligeledes hævet niveauet for slottets ”Grand Vin”. Ønologisk konsulent: Michel Rolland.

Leveres i originale trækasser ved køb af 6 flasker.

"Deep crimson. Instense blackcurrant praline vanilla nougat aromas. Supple and sweet fruited with ripe cassis, chocolaty notes, fine loosknit grainy tannins and udnerlying espresso, roasted coffee notes. Firm chalky firnish with seductive sweet fruits. Very modern and approachable. (Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Petit Verdot, Cabernet Franc 30%+ new oak)"

93/100 Antonio Galloni
"The 2022 La Tour Carnet is a potent, brooding wine. A rush of dark red fruit, iron, white pepper, leather and licorice stains the palate. This driving, persistent Haut-Médoc has a lot to recommend it. The 2022 is complex and wonderfully dynamic in the glass, qualities that will allow it to age gracefully for many years to come."

"This classed growth estate just outside Saint-Julien, produces a rich, dense wine. Its concentration and black fruits combine with acidity and a solid structure that will age well."

92-93/100 Wine Maniacs
"Good old classic. Easy going and accessible. All check box ticked though nothing sta nds out. Linear, a touch of freshness at the end."

92/100 Decanter
"Bold and forward, this surges with power and juicy acidity giving a really dynamic and lively profile but with a dark, spiced core. Bright strawberries meet sticky liquorice, espresso, cocoa and an almost bitter orange element on the finish. There's minerality too in the wet stone, blood iron and graphite grip that takes hold towards the end. I like the styling and the fact the wine hasn't been pushed too far in a year where that would have been easy. It has heft but also a hint of classicism."

92/100 James Suckling
"Ripe cherries, plums, tapenade, dried flowers and a touch of baked berries on the nose. This is ripe but still juicy and tightly wound, with dusty tannins that coalesce at the end."

92/100 Falstaff
"Deep dark ruby garnet colour with opaque core and purple reflections, delicate brightening on the rim. Subtle noble oak nuances, some chocolate, dark wild berries, discreet herbal savouriness in the background. Juicy, ripe cherries, pleasant fruit sweetness, fresh acidity, nougat on the finish, a versatile food wine that will soon be accessible."

92/100 Jeff Leve, The Wine Cellar Insider
A bit of cocoa adds the perfect touch of complexity to all the sweet, ripe, blackberries, black cherries, and espresso in the nose, and on the lush, round, forward, fruity palate. The wine blends 59% Merlot, 40% Cabernet Sauvignon, and 1% Cabernet Franc. You can enjoy this on release.”
