Château Les Charmes Haut Brion is an estate situated in Pessac-Léognan and has, since 2010, benefitted significantly from the investment in renovation and replanting undertaken by new owner, Patrice Pichet. From the excellent 2015 vintage, this is a superb release composed of 44% Cabernet Franc, 32% Merlot and 24% Cabernet Sauvignon. Medium-bodied and plush, it has superb delineation and balance, with the potential to age for at least 20-30 years.

The succulent depth and width to this wine is clear as soon as your nose hovers over the glass. Concentrated tannins hum underneath a more sculpted aerian side of fragrant peonies and raspberry leaf that take off through the palate. This was a warm vintage and we are on a warm site here, and yet you feel a freshness, with crushed mint leaf and juicy cranberry that belies the vintage and speaks to deft winemaking. This is the point at which Carmes begins to fully take on its own personaity that is not necessarily reflective of the appellation as a whole. 3.7ph, 40% new oak.Jane Anson9th February 2022

The 2015 Les Carmes Haut-Brion has a lifted, finely delineated nose with black cherry, wild mint and a dab of cough candy in the background. The palate is medium-bodied with plush tannins, but there is structure behind that slightly glossy façade. This has gentle grip and the right amount of black pepper that lends complexity on the finish. It just requires a bit of time. Tasted blind at the 2015 Bordeaux Ten-Year-On tasting at Farr Vintners.
