Chateau Haut-Carles 2019
This Haut-Carles 2019 from Chateau de Carles reveals the fruit of Merlot, complemented by a delicate woodiness and a creamy palate. It will evolve to become much more complex over time.
This exceptional vintage resulting from plot selections is superbly concentrated. It was launched in 1994 to compete with the most prestigious Bordeaux wines. It reveals the dazzling fruit of the Merlot which essentially composes it , a very delicate oakiness and a creamy mouthfeel with silky tannins. Delicious in its youth, it reveals an even more complex and harmonious bouquet over time.
Grape Composition: 90% Merlot, 5% Malbec, 5% Cabernet Franc

“Inky dark purple core and hue. Pure and intense with layers of ripe dark fruit, creme de cassis, new oak and some chalky notes. Very dense and concentrated palate yet with supple extraction and a seamless texture, savoury and fresh with a very long and plush finish.”
