CHÂTEAU LAFITTE CARCASSET

Saint-Estèphe 2019

- 92 points -

Deep garnet-purple colored, the 2019 Chateau Laffitte Carcasset leaps from the glass with notes of freshly crushed blackberries, warm blackcurrants and redcurrant jelly plus hints of violets, pencil shavings, wild sage and beef drippings. Medium-bodied, the palate is chock-full of crunchy black fruits, supported by ripe, grainy tannins and compelling freshness, offering a satisfying finish of fresh berries with a minty kick.
