Chateau Les Carmes Haut-Brion Pessac Leognan 2000

Twenty-five years of careful aging has given this Pessac-Léognan its full voice: medium ruby with ripe dark-berry aromatics that open to leafy, licorice-edged notes on the palate. The high percentage of Cabernet Franc in the blend lends a graceful lightness characteristic of this innovative estate, while fine tannins and fresh acidity allow damson and dark plum flavors to sing on the elegant finish. Perfectly matured and ready to drink now.
