Description

Château La Tour Carnet Haut‑Médoc Grand Cru Classé is a historic Left Bank Bordeaux known for its depth, structure, and polished modern style. One of the oldest estates in the Médoc, it produces a richly fruited, oak‑matured wine that reflects both tradition and contemporary precision. The blend is typically dominated by Cabernet Sauvignon, giving it power and longevity, supported by Merlot for suppleness and aromatic charm.

Producer
Château La Tour Carnet, owned by Bernard Magrez, is a classified Fourth Growth from the 1855 Classification. The estate combines centuries‑old heritage with state‑of‑the‑art winemaking, focusing on meticulous vineyard management and careful barrel ageing. Its wines are known for concentration, elegance, and a distinctive balance of ripe fruit and refined structure.

Tasting Notes
Deep ruby‑purple in colour, the wine opens with aromas of blackcurrant, plum, cedar, violet, and subtle toasted spice. The palate is full‑bodied and structured, offering layers of dark fruit, graphite, cocoa, and well‑integrated oak. Firm yet polished tannins support the richness, while fresh acidity brings lift. The finish is long, refined, and complex, with lingering notes of cassis, spice, and fine oak.

Food Pairing
Serve at 16–18°C after decanting for an hour. Excellent with roast lamb, grilled beef, duck, hard cheeses, and richly flavoured mushroom dishes. Its structure and depth also make it a rewarding wine to cellar and enjoy as it evolves.
