Château La Tour Carnet is a Grand Cru Classé estate in the Haut-Médoc appellation, and it has been producing wine since the 11th century. The estate is owned by Bernard Magrez, who also owns a number of other prestigious wine estates in Bordeaux, including Château Pape Clément and Château Fombrauge. The 2009, which boasts Michel Rolland as the consultant, was a final blend of 62% Merlot and 35% Cabernet Sauvignon, complemented by Petit Verdot and Cabernet Franc. Drinking well now.

Vinous
The 2009 La Tour Carnet has an attractive blackberry, savory and peppermint scented bouquet that opens nicely with aeration. The palate is medium-bodied with gritty tannin, quite masculine and sharp with a slightly bitter finish. I suspect this will improve with bottle age as it amidst a dumb phase. Tasted blind at Farr Vintners’ 2009 Bordeaux tasting. Neal Martin1st March 2019
