Note di degustazione
The 2004 Les Carmes Haut-Brion has an attractive bouquet, mainly red fruit mixed with blood orange and light licorice notes, perhaps even a dab of cough candy with time in the glass. The palate is medium-bodied with slightly rustic tannins, but it is balanced and ferrous in style with a short, tannic finish. If you have bottles, I would drink this over the next five or six years.

An impressive perfume of blueberries, raspberries, graphite, cedar, and flowers suggestive of an outstanding wine soars from the glass of this 2004 Pessac-Leognan. A lush attack reveals excellent fruit, texture, and precision, but the wine narrows slightly in the finish. If it adds weight over the next few years, it will merit an outstanding rating. Give it 1-3 years of bottle age and drink it over the following 12-14. It is undeniably a sleeper of the vintage.
Full red. Very Graves-y aromas of plum, redcurrant, tobacco and smoked meat, along with a whiff of caramel. Sweet and juicy, with good cut and intensity to its flavors of red fruits, spices and tobacco. Nicely persistent, juicy wine with rather suave tannins. Today this seems a bit riper than the young 2006.
Informazioni sul produttore
One of the most exciting properties in Bordeaux, Les Carmes Haut-Brion technically sits within the city’s limits today. Guillaume Pouthier arrived in 2012 and, under his tenure, the property has been elevated to the highest ranks.
