Château La Tour Carnet 2013

• Domaine:  Château La Tour Carnet • Appellation: Haut Médoc • Classification: Fourth Growth, 4ème Grand Cru Classé • Origin: Left Bank , Bordeaux , France

Château La Tour Carnet is one of the older properties in the Haut Médoc.  This Fourth Growth estate is one of the few that has a working moat and drawbridge.  Visiting the Château La Tour Carnet feels a bit like traveling back in time - to the middle ages to be exact. Château La Tour Carnet is without a doubt a stunning property, and the wines from this estate are no slouch either.  The quality here has improved over the decades, yet prices still remain low due to the large quanity produced.  As the largest property in size in Médoc, Château La Tour Carnet presents great value examples of the Haut Médoc terroir .    Château La Tour Carnet has been around for around 800 years.  Records of this property date all the way back to the 11th Century.  The property was inhabited by the English and used as a military outpost during the 12th Century.  It was originally named Château de St. Laurent, and the land was eventually annexed by the French.  After the 100 Years War, Château La Tour Carnet was nearly ruined, before it was obtained by Charles de Leutken who revitalized the estate.  Château La Tour Carnet was classified as a Fourth Growth during the 1855 Classification.  It stayed in the Leutken family for generations until it was acquired by a titan in the wine industry, Bernard Magrez in 1999.  Bernard Magrez owns numerous estates in Bordeaux, one of which is the legendary Château Pape Clement in the Pessac-Leognan appellation.   The terroir of Château La Tour Carnet is some of the most unique in the Haut Médoc appellation.  The estate sits on a giant clay and limestone plateau, with a very unique type of Garonne and Pyrenean gravel.   Merlot flourishes in these types of gravel, which is why the majority of the vineyard is planted with Merlot – something very unique in the normally Cabernet-centric appellation of the Haut Médoc.  In addition to the vines of Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc, Château La Tour Carnet also produces some white wines.  The property has plantings of Sauvignon Blanc, Semillon, Sauvignon Gris – a favorite of Bernard Magrez – and Muscadelle.  Technically white grapes are against the law in the Haut Médoc AOC, so the white wine produced by Château La Tour Carnet is labeled as a generic AOC Bordeaux Blanc.   Château La Tour Carnet also has a very interesting winemaking process.  The grapes are whole berry fermented, after being cooled to 8 degrees Celcius in a cryogenic tunnel by using liquid Azote – a form of Nitrogen gas.  The wines are then vinified in a range of wood vats and stainless-steel tanks.  A small portion of the wine is aged in large, clay amphorae to provide a freshness to the wine.   It is recommended that the wines spend a little bit of time aging in bottle before they are enjoyed.  The wine of Château La Tour Carnet typically shows best after approximately 5-7 years of bottle aging.  Younger vintages can be decanted for a couple hours for the wine to express its delicate aromas.

Tasting Notes

"Bernard Magrez’s dense ruby/plum/purple-colored 2013 La Tour Carnet possesses good depth and ripeness as well as a rich, concentrated character. Even though there is something one-dimensional about this cuvee (no doubt because of the vintage’s shortcomings), it is a successful effort in this tough vintage. Drink it over the next 4-5 years." - Robert Parker Jr., The Wine Advocate (8/27/2014, Issue 214),  Ratings: 85-87, Drink: 2014-2019

"88–90. Barrel Sample. Ripe and fruity, this is full of rich tannins and a soft texture. It has tight acidity, followed by a smoky, toasty character." - Roger Voss, The Wine Enthusiast (3/2016),  Ratings: 89

The Haut-Médoc appellation is a vast and prestigious wine region located on the Left Bank of the Gironde in the northwest of Bordeaux. Covering roughly 4,600 hectares, this region forms a crucial part of the Médoc and is home to the famous appellations of Saint-Estèphe , Pauillac , Saint-Julien , Margaux , Moulis and Listrac.

The wines from Haut-Médoc predominantly feature the classic Bordeaux grape varieties. Cabernet Sauvignon is the mainstay imparting structure, intensity and aging potential to the wines. It is often blended with Merlot which brings roundness and softness, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot and Malbec add additional aromatic nuances. This blend produces wines that are well-balanced with a harmonious mix of fruit, tannins and acidity. 

Haut-Médoc wines are renowned for their sophistication, elegance, balance and capacity for aging. They exhibit aromas of black fruits, cassis and plum accompanied by notes of cedar, tobacco and spices. 

Among the most iconic chateaux of the Haut-Medoc appellation, there are many renowned estates producing high-quality wines. Among them, several wines are classified in the 1855 classification such as Château La Lagune (Third Growths) , Château La Tour Carnet (Fourth Growths) as well as Château Belgrave and Château Cantemerle are Fifth Growths . Other renowned estates in this region are : Château Belle-Vue , Château Verdignan , Château Lanessan , Château de Camensac and Château Sociando-Mallet .
