Profoundly beautiful in color. The nose is very expressive, developing aromas of black fruits, pepper, white tobacco and aromatic herbs (thyme, rosemary). The mouth is ample and smooth, evolving into a dense and balanced structure. The finish is long and persistent with remarkable tannins, a sign of remarkable quality and mature fruit.
The uniqueness of the terroir of Saint-Laurent-du-Medoc lies in its diversity. It is a mosaic of sandy-gravelly and gravelly slopes on which are located the best vineyards, including La Tour Carnet. Soil structure presents a great similarity with that of neighboring appellations of Pauillac and Saint-Julien.
