Critics' Tasting Notes:
"Espresso, blackberries, smoke, licorice and cocoa open the wine. Here you find a full-bodied wine with polished tannins and layers of round-textured fruits giving way to a supple finish packed with fruit and a touch of oak."
92/100 points, Jeff Leve, THE WINE CELLAR INSIDER, March 2022
"Offering up aromas of rich cassis and blackberry fruit mingled with burning embers, loamy soil and cigar wrapper, the 2019 La Tour Carnet is medium to full-bodied, velvety and enveloping, with a broad attack that segues into an ample core of fruit that's framed by ripe, powdery tannins and lively acids. This is a seamless, rather giving Médoc that has turned out very well."
92/100 points, William Kelley, WINE ADVOCATE, April 2022
Pair with a platter of assorted charcuterie.
