Chateau de Carles 2019
Silky on the palate and enveloped in tannins as delicate as they are melted, this wine draws the contours of a resolutely modern Fronsac. It is built around a deep, clean and greedy fruit. With a price-pleasure ratio at the top of Bordeaux, it is ready to drink immediately. It can also stay in the cellar for a generation.
Grape Composition:Â 90% Merlot, 5% Malbec, 5% Cabernet Franc

“Bright young and inky colour. Pure nose with chalky hints, ripe dark berries, violet, liquorice and fine spices. The palate is polished and digest with both density and freshness, youthful but ripe texture, savoury dark fruit and a long finish.”
