Oplev Château La Tour Carnet i en af de største Bordeaux-årgange nogensinde!
Château La Tour Carnet er klassificeret som 4. Grand Cru Classé (efter 1855-klassifikationen) og har en historie, der strækker sig helt tilbage til 1100-tallet.
Siden 1999 har slottet været ejet af den stor vinkøbmand, Bernard Magrez, der ejer adskillige slotte i Bordeaux. Château La Tour Carnet ligger i den nordligste den af Haut-Médoc, nær grænsen til St.-Éstephe. Her giver de veldrænede grusbanker få, men særdeles smagskoncentrerede druer. I den allerede legendariske årgang 2016 har vinen en helt enestående struktur og aldringspotentiale.
La Tour Carnet står lækkert i glasset med en fornem violet kulør. Aromatisk og elegant næse med nyplukkede solbær, kirsebær, blåbær og blommer, der indsvøbes i nyrullet tobak, røg, mynte, lakrids og mokka fra fadet. I munden møder du en voluminøs og stor Cru Classé, der hurtigt afslører den fremragende årgangs tekstur og frugtfylde. Masser af friske, mørke bærfrugter fører an i smagen, der suppleres af finkornede tanniner. Lang mineralsk finish med spændende nuancer af orangeskal, nelliker og cedertræ. Stor allerede nu, men rummer også et kæmpe potentiale. Drik nu, eller gem 20-25 år fra høståret.
Anmeldelser af Château La Tour Carnet Haut-Médoc 4.
Cru Classé 2016
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️94-95/100 Bettane & Desseauve
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️94/100 Wine Enthusiast
"This is a rich wine, packed with tannins that contrast the fresh acidity and black currant fruit. It's a solid wine that's constructed to age."
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 94/100 Tastingbook.com
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️93/100 James Suckling
"this has an impressive depth of blackberry and blueberry character, together with a fine vanilla-oak note that beautifully complements the supple and finely nuanced, medium body. I love the crisp and delicately herbal, dry finish."
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️93/100 Decanter
"This has a deep rich ruby colour with powerful dark fruit aromatics. It's smooth, rich and extremely good quality, with an oak smokiness evident but well integrated. It feels at the very beginning of its life, with everything in place"
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 93/100 Jeannie Cho Lee, MW
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️92/100 Vinous - Antonio Galloni
"The 2016 La Tour Carnet is fabulous. Rich, dense and voluptuous in the glass, the 2016 exudes intensity in every dimension. Sweet red cherry, tobacco, menthol, licorice, pomegranate and spice give the 2016 a decidedly exotic character that is hugely appealing."
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️92/100 Falstaff
"Dark ruby garnet, opaque core, subtle brightening of the edges, dark cherry fruit, some nougat, delicate orange zest. Juicy, fine blackberry fruit, firm tannins, good freshness, chocolaty finish, a little bit of wood as usual, mineral finish, needs time.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️92/100 Tasted.com
"Generous nose with ripe dark fruit (cassis, plum, cherry), roasted oak, coffee, mild spices and tar. The palate is broad and voluminous with a healthy freshness underneath, ripe but dense tannin and a long chewy finish with attractive dark fruit."
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️18/20 René Gabriel
"Velvety, finely opulent, dense bouquet, black cherries, black berries, cassis, mocha, black chocolate. Dense, lush, fruity palate with sweet fruit, lots of good tannin, creamy, muscular structure, dark aromas, velvety, well dry finish."
