Grand Vin De Graves

2015 Pessac-Leognan Red Blend

Chateau Les Carmes Haut-Brion Grand Vin De Graves is a masterful red blend from the esteemed Pessac-Léognan region, showcasing the exceptional qualities of the 2015 vintage. This wine presents a deep, rich red color that captivates the eye and hints at its complexity. The body is full and enveloping, providing a plush mouthfeel that complements its remarkable structure. With high acidity, this wine offers a refreshing lift, balancing its lush characteristics beautifully. Prominent fruit intensity evokes dark fruits such as blackcurrants and plums, while subtle earthy undertones enhance its complexity. The tannins are notably firm yet refined, contributing to a powerful and age-worthy profile. This red blend is decidedly dry, making it an excellent choice to pair with a variety of rich dishes, from roasted meats to hearty stews. Enjoying a glass of Chateau Les Carmes Haut-Brion is a true invitation to experience the elegance and depth that Pessac-Léognan wines are renowned for.

Probably the world's most famous wine region, Bordeaux is a true powerhouse of French quality. While Bordeaux is home to some of the country's most expensive bottles, it is also possible to find great-value wines from small producers. Almost all red and white wines from Bordeaux are blends. Reds tend to be a mix of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Cabernet Franc. But just as important as the blends are the quality of the region's terroir and unique winemaking techniques. The Bordeaux region is divided by the Gironde River into two main parts. Cabernet Sauvignon reigns supreme on the Left Bank, while Merlot dominates the Right Bank. White wines are usually a blend of Sauvignon Blanc and Sémillon.
