Extremely aromatic with currant and blackberry character, as well as graphite. Medium body, very fine tannins and subtle flavors of berries and dark chocolate. Lovely elegance to the texture. Drink after 2022.

Varietal Red Bordeaux

There are few regions in the world with stricter regulations in regards to wine production and grape varietals than those found in Bordeaux, France. Here, in the home of the world's finest wines, the type and quality of grapes used is of utmost importance, and the legendary wineries which work on the banks of the Gironde river have mastered the careful art of juice blending to find the perfect balance for their produce. Whilst there are six 'official' Bordeaux grapes, the two key varietals for almost every fine Bordeaux wine are Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, and with good reason. Whilst Cabernet Sauvignon grapes are renowned for their acidity and astringency, strong fruit and spice flavors and full body, Merlot grapes are notably rounded, soft, fleshy and lighter on tannin. The combination of these two varietals, along with a small percentage of (commonly) Petit Verdot or Cabernet Franc, is the perfect balancing act â€“ the two grape varietals cancel out each others weaker points, and accentuate all that is good about the other.

Here the extraction is a little bit more highly charged, ambitious for the vintage but gets away with it due to the layered cassis and bilberry fruits on display. The wine is well held together, it softens in the glass but continues to display firm tannins that are doing their job. A little short on the finish, but plenty to enjoy and easy to recommend.

The 2017 La Tour Carnet is supple, racy and wonderfully expressive. Dark red cherry, plum, blood orange, mint and spice add lovely shades of nuance to this delicious Haut-Médoc. Once again, Bernard Magrez's La Tour Carnet is one of the hidden gems of Bordeaux. Tasted two times.

This is another impressive vintage here, and classic Bordeaux lovers should snatch up bottles of the 2017 Chateau Tour Carnet. Lots of blackcurrants, scorched earth, tobacco leaf, and hints of gravelly minerality all emerge from this deep purple/ruby-colored effort. With medium-bodied richness and depth, ripe yet present tannins, and terrific overall balance, it's not a blockbuster but just a classy Medoc that will drink nicely for 10-12 years.
