Note di degustazione
The 1971 Les Carmes Haut-Brion has a deep core with a brick rim. Powerful on the nose, rustic and perhaps just a touch volatile, but the 1971 displays drive and a surprising degree of opulence. The palate is unexpectedly concentrated with layers of black-pepper-tinged red fruit, spicebox and sage. It's cohesive and not amazingly finessed but surfeit with personality and presence. This wine would give La Mission and Haut-Brion a serious run for their money. Tasted at the Les Carmes Haut-Brion vertical at the château.
