March 30, 2022 - Needs at least an hour of decanting. Dark fruits emerged on the nose underpinned by a moderate acidity. Tannins have receded but a decent finish. Definately near the end but still satisfying.

Excellent terroir driven classified Medoc especially given the hot vintage. Sweet savory cabernet fruit with great balance with a persistent mouthcoating finish-not at all hot.
today showed why La Tour Carnet is a 4th growth.

November 23, 2020 - Nach Lafontaine Rochet 2000 fiel dieser natürlich kellerkalt geöffnet ab.
Trotzdem sehr solide. Intensive Süße (nicht klebrig), Reife (Brom-)Beeren, wenig Säure, wenig Holz. Durchaus kräftig. Dunkelrot -
