"The 1995 offers a deep color, low acidity, and ripe fruit, as well as a smoky, herb, tobacco, jammy fruit quality, good purity, medium body, and a layered, velvety-textured feel . . . . This wine provides persuasive evidence that finesse and elegance can be accompanied by plenty of flavor."

The world's most influential fine-wine producer and the benchmark for Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne and the Rhone. Its appellation (AOC) system codifies geography, grape and method, and its wines set the global standard for age-worthiness and terroir expression.
The world's largest fine-wine region, built around blends of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. Divided by the Gironde estuary into the structured Left Bank and the plush, Merlot-led Right Bank, it is the historic benchmark for age-worthy claret and sweet Sauternes.
In the Graves, the only Bordeaux appellation renowned for both reds and dry whites. Gravelly soils yield smoky, mineral reds and age-worthy Sauvignon-Semillon blends.
Chateau Les Carmes Haut-Brion is an acclaimed Pessac-Leognan estate in Bordeaux, distinctive for its high Cabernet Franc content and whole-bunch vinification, producing perfumed, elegant reds from a walled urban vineyard.
