Château Les Carmes Haut-Brion Pessac-Léognan FUTURES 2023 pre-arrival ETA summer 2026
Producer tasting notes:
"Full-bodied to tubular, the wines are now stretching out. Fresh ness and drinkability the watchwords. Explosive delicacy, rnineral finesse, sappy, resinous atmosphere, notes of iris and violet, elderflower, black and tangy." - Chateau Les Carmes Haut Brion
Critics' Reviews:
- Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: 99
"Guillaume Pouthier and his team have crafted one of Bordeaux's most unique wines. Aromas of mulberries, raspberries, vine smoke, orange zest, and rose petals. Medium to full-bodied, fleshy, concentrated, with a vibrant mid-palate and a long, ethereal finish. Beautifully refined tannins, near-imperceptible. This blend of 50% Cabernet Franc, 30% Cabernet Sauvignon, and 20% Merlot is crafted for longevity."
- James Suckling: 99
"A fantastic wine with purity and brightness to the floral, spicy, and blackberry notes. Full and deep with agility and weightlessness. Lightly salty. 60% whole-berry fermentation. From organically grown grapes."
