Drank this amazing wine a few nights ago. We purchased it direct at Chateau Tour Carnet in the Medoc, owned by Bernard Magrez who owns this vineyard. The 2017 has a lot of fruit and is well-balanced, a little tangy on the tongue, long-lasting finish. I'm glad we bought three bottles! It cost just 7 euros a bottle, so will be back for more next trip to the Medoc.

P: Med, poss LM, body; NICE, almost swtish frt met by astringent pucker which SOMEWHAT resolves by the LONG finish with a tangy/swtness to the dusty tannins & an ULT pleasantness. 13% ABV; My VG+/EXC-, & a potential sleeper with 12-18 mos of addt'l cellaring. 94 pts & Platinum from '19 S.D. Int'l Challenge @ $14.99.
