Hachette ** ♥
Château La Tour Carnet 2011 is one of the successes of the 2011 vintage.
The team of Bernard Magrez has given the best with this vintage. This wine, composed of 60% Merlot and Cabernets, is a subtle, modern wine with aromas of cocoa, vanilla and black fruit. Of a good length with silky tannins, not too woody, it is a bottle already delicious to drink.
It is a medium-bodied wine with a good concentration, it is advisable to taste it on grilled meats red or white. It is a very charming wine already very pleasant to drink that can be kept at least 5 years.
The advice of 12bouteilles: Open 1 hour before tasting.
