94p 94 p "this 2017 ranks with the gems of Pessac as well as all of Bordeaux"

Offering an Haut-Brion-like level of purity and precision, the 2017 Chateau Les Carmes Haut-Brion (41% Cabernet Franc, 30% Merlot, and 29% Cabernet Sauvignon) sports a vivid purple color as well as perfumed notes of blueberries, blackberries, unsmoked tobacco, crushed violets, and spring flowers. It’s not a blockbuster in the mold of the 2015 or 2016 (or 2018), but it has medium to full body, a beautiful elegance and purity, notable minerality, and an exceptional finish. It opens up with time in the glass, and I was able to follow a bottle for 3 days without it ever showing a hint of oxidation. Give bottles 4-5 years of bottle age and enjoy over the following 30 years or more. Guillaume Pouthier and consultant Stephane Derenoncourt have unquestionably raised the quality from this estate, and this 2017 ranks with the gems of Pessac as well as all of Bordeaux.

94p 94 p "Quite fine, fresh tannins carry plenty of red-plum flavor."

Aromas of graphite and spiced wood here. The fruit is nicely ripe, in the redder end of the berry spectrum. The palate has good depth and weight. Quite fine, fresh tannins carry plenty of red-plum flavor. Drink or hold.

94p 94 p "The savory edge of Cabernet Franc is still very much to the fore at this point, and there is good life ahead. One to look out for!"

Deep ruby in colour, one of the darker and more vibrant wines at this stage with plenty of interest on the palate. Theres a great complexity of flavours with touches of blackberry, liquorice, chocolate and rosemary, and although its not as intense as most recent vintages of Carmes, this is well defined. The tannins are ready to go to work - there is a sweetness to the fruit that I have not found in all the wines, and suggests good ripeness. The savory edge of Cabernet Franc is still very much to the fore at this point, and there is good life ahead. One to look out for!

93p 93+ p "great elegance and poise"

Composed of 41% Cabernet Franc, 30% Merlot and 29% Cabernet Sauvignon, the 2017 Les Carmes Haut-Brion was fermented using 40% whole clusters and aged for around 20 months in French oak barrels, 65% new. Medium to deep garnet-purple, it springs from the glass with fragrant notions of Black Forest cake, kirsch and black raspberries plus touches of cedar chest, red roses, black tea and dried mint. Medium bodied, the palate struts itself with great elegance and poise, featuring restrained, mineral-sparked red and black fruits with a firm, grainy texture and bold freshness, finishing long and perfumed.

93p 93 p " A distinctive and alluring expression of the appellation"

A sanguine thread weaves around the core of steeped red and black currant fruit, with singed mesquite, iron and briar notes filling in along the way. The sanguine element leaves a mouthwatering echo at the end. A distinctive and alluring expression of the appellation. Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon. Best from 2022 through 2036. 3,333 cases made. — JM
