Red wine dry
The 2018 Les Carmes Haut-Brion is composed of 37% Cabernet Franc, 34% Cabernet Sauvignon and 29% Merlot. It was made using 52% whole cluster and has 13.75% alcohol. It is anticipated to age 18-24 months in 75% new oak barriques, 16% foudres and 9% amphorae. Deep garnet-purple colored, it is slightly broody and reduced to begin, slowly growing to reveal notions of charcoal, smoked meats, truffles and tilled soil over a core of black raspberries, warm black cherries, blackberry coulis and redcurrant jelly plus wafts of Provence herbs and iron ore. Medium to full-bodied, the palate is taut and muscular, tense with latent energy, offering a rock-solid backbone of firm, grainy tannins and bold freshness to support the bright, vibrant fruit, finishing long and mineral laced.
Serve at 16-18 °C with all types of classic meat dishes: veal, pork, beef, lamb, duck, game, chicken steaks that are roasted, stewed or grilled.
Chateau Les Carmes Haut Brion ūkis yra įsikūręs Pessac - Leognan apeliacijoje netoli garsių Chateau Haut Brion ir Chateau La Mission Haut Brion vyninių. Jam priklauso beveik 29 ha vynuogynų apsodintų 50% Merlot, 40% Cabernet Franc ir 10% Cabernet Sauvignon vynmedžių. Ši vyninė, turbūt, turi didžiausią procentą Cabernet Franc vynmedžių kairiajame Bordo krante, tad jos vynai yra šiek tiek lengvesni nei įprasta Pessac - Leognan vynams, tačiau pasižymi intensyviu aromatu ir puikia derme.
