In Stock & Ready To Ship!

Excellent quality Cru Bourgeois. Ripe cassis fruit, oak spice and a leafy note to the ripe tannins. Slightly savoury and showing a hint of maturity, the finish has notes of forest floor and is long and spicy with a lingering, fruity core. 

The vines at Château Carcanieux average 25 years of age and grow on particularly gravelly and sandy, free-draining soil within 23ha of this Médoc estate. The blend of Cabernet Sauvignon (45%), Merlot (40%), Cabernet Franc (10%) and Petit Verdot (5%) are vinified in stainless steel tanks and aged oak barrels, with no more than a fifth in new oak.

Try with a peppered steak, chargrilled lamb or venison.
