This Côtes du Rhône Villages AOP is an extraordinary wine. The team of the La Nerthe winery, which has been based in the Châteauneuf-du-Pape region since the 14th century, maintains the Les Cassagnes vineyards located in Sérignan-du-Comtat, France. The grapes for this wine are selected exclusively from the best parcels of land.

Château La Tour Carnet Grand Cru Classé AOC 2020

This Bordeaux from the Haut-Médoc appellation was classified as a 4ème Cru Classé in the 1855 classification. It is a wine for connoisseurs, a head of character with rough edges, which, however, become somewhat smoother with ageing. The quality of the wines from La Tour Carnet has risen extraordinarily since Bernard Magrez took over in 1999.The nose is beautifully fruity with hints of black pepper, blueberries, morello cherries and blackcurrants, as well as mushrooms, leather and prunes. It comes across as quite powerful and juicy, but still shows a rather impetuous power, which will, however, subside. Overall, there is a lot of potential here for a long wine life, with already well-integrated tannins and a long finish.It is recommended to decant the wine, which was vinified from 30% Cabernet Sauvignon and 70% Merlot, at least one hour before drinking.
