Château Les Carmes Haut-Brion is a cult-favorite estate in Pessac-Léognan, uniquely renowned for its high proportion of Cabernet Franc. The 2000 vintage is a monumental, legendary year for Bordeaux, and this wine has now reached an absolute pinnacle of maturity. It offers a profoundly moving, purely tertiary bouquet of sweet cigar box, fine tobacco, roasted red peppers, undergrowth, and signature smoky earthiness. On the palate, it is medium-bodied, remarkably ethereal, and completely seamless, with incredibly velvety tannins and an infinite, complex finish. A masterpiece.
