Chateau La Tour Carnet 2024

JAMES SUCKLING: "Fresh cherries, currants, hibiscus and herbs follow through to a juicy palate with medium body and soft-grained tannins. Fluid yet firm, this has a succulent, medium-length finish."

ANSON: "Well teased out dark berry fruits, careful construction, wash of cedar and campfire smoke, black tea and slate, a little leafy through the mid palate but a juicy finish. Harvest 24 September to 9 October. 35 hl/ha. 60% in oak of which 50% is new. They are reducing the percentage of first wine at La Tour Carnet, in reflection of how far and fast the vineyard footprint has grown with new acquisitions."

FALSTAFF: "Dunkles Rubingranat, opaker Kern, violette Reflexe, zarte Randaufhellung. Zarte Edelholznuancen, schwarze Beerenfrucht, ein Hauch von Feigen, Orangenzesten sind unterlegt. Schlank, rotbeerig, frisch strukturiert, mineralisch, zart blättrig im Nachhall, ein vielseitiger Speisenbegleiter."
