Tour Carnet Red 2013 A Grand Crus From Haut-Medoc

Tour Carnet: a full-bodied red wine

Tour Carnet is a red wine made by the prestigious Château La Tour Carnet vineyard located in the Haut-Médoc region. This wine is the result of a blend of noble grape varieties such as Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot, and Petit Verdot, which give it a unique personality.

A wine in the Médoc style

Tour Carnet is a full-bodied wine that stands out with its intense ruby color and powerful nose of ripe fruits and undergrowth. You can also detect spicy notes that add a beautiful aromatic complexity. On the palate, the tannins are smooth, and the finish is long and persistent.

Savory food and wine pairing

Tour Carnet is a powerful wine that pairs perfectly with red meat dishes such as beef, lamb, and game (deer, venison). It can also be paired with poultry dishes to add a touch of finesse and elegance. Also, try pairing it with hard cheeses for an unforgettable gustatory experience.

A high alcohol content

Tour Carnet has an alcohol of 14%, which gives it its power and generosity in the mouth. To fully enjoy its aromas and structure, it is recommended to serve it at a temperature between 16 and 18 degrees. You can appreciate the full richness of this full-bodied red wine.

A difficult vintage in the Médoc region, but with interesting potential for wines meant for aging. The wines are tannic and a bit austere, but can be enjoyable with food.
