This is one of the largest percentages of Cabernet Franc for this wine this vintage. Medium to deep garnet-purple colored. it gives notes of kirsch. black raspberries and black plums with touches of cassis. violets. chocolate box and pencil shavings. The palate is medium-bodied. firm. grainy and lively with loads of layers and a long. well-poised finish.
Antonio Galloni bewertet den Les Carmes Haut Brion 2016 im Januar 2019 wie folgt: The 2016 Les Carmes Haut-Brion is very clearly one of the wines of the vintage. Breathtaking in its beauty. the 2016 soars from the glass with stunning aromatic and flavor intensity. Red cherry jam. wild flowers. mint. blood orange and sage are some of many notes that develop. In the glass. the 2016 is a vivid. statuesque. exotic wine that takes over all the senses as it delivers tons of pure pleasure. Readers should plan on cellaring the 2016 for at least a few years. but that will be virtually impossible. The 2016 is a towering masterpiece from Les Carmes Haut-Brion and Technical Director Guillaume Pouthier. Tasted three times.
Verkostungsbericht vom 03. Februar 2019:Terrific ripeness. depth and complexity on offer here. This has a very attractive array of bright. ripe blueberries and cassis with some leafy and earthy notes. The palate has a quite deep. long and vibrant array of perfectly ripe dark plums and blueberries. So good. Best vintage this decade. Try from 2023.
