Description

Robert Parker hailed the 2009 vintage as "The finest vintage of Bordeaux that I have tasted in 37 years".
"What's so striking about 2009 - and I haven't seen this kind of excitement since 1982 - is the quality of the Cru Bourgeois and the petits vins and the generic Bordeaux that are available.In short,2009 is the greatest vintage I have tasted in Bordeaux since 1982,of which it is a modern-day version,but greatly improved.

Robert Parker. (The Wine Advocate. #188. April 2010).


The multi-millionaire Bernard Magrez has recently bought Chateau La Tour Carnet,together with Chateau Pape-Clement in the Graves.Since Michel Rolland has been appointed winemaker of these two chateaux their wine quality has been transformed.Michel Rolland was the winemaker in the superb 2009 vintage:-

"This dense purple wine displays notes of charcoal,subtle toast and white chocolate as well as blueberry and blackberry liqueur intermixed with hints of graphite and licorice.Dense,full-bodied,unctuously-textured,and quite long and thick,this concentrated,impressively endowed wine is silky-textured and already accessible.However,I suspect its best days are at least 5-7 years ahead of it.It should keep for a minimum of two decades".
(92 Points).

Robert Parker. (The Wine Advocate. #199. February 2012).


"Full-bodied,with super-silky tannins and a long finish.Solid and balanced,with pretty tannins.A polished young wine".
(90-93 Points).

James Suckling. (WineSpectator.com April 2010).


"Cropped at 43hl/ha,a blend of 54% Merlot,40% Cabernet Sauvignon,5% Cabernet Franc and 2% Petit Verdot,harvested between 29th September and 22nd October,this has a ripe plum,blueberry and cassis scented nose with good definition.If just a little obvious at the moment.Very ripe and sensuous,more like a Right Bank bouquet.The palate is medium-bodied with good acidity,very fine tannins,a slight metallic edge on entry,good density and focus here with great definitiontowards the linear finish.Tightly wound,nicely controlled for the vintage".
(91-93 Points).

Neal Martin. (eRobertParker.com March 2010).


Please note:-

The back label of these bottles actually states a slightly different grape blend making up this wine to that above-mentioned by Neal Martin.That being 62% Merlot,33% Cabernet Sauvignon,2% Cabernet Franc and 3% Petit verdot.
