Château du Cartillon (Haut-Médoc)
The espresso and cherry perfume fills your nose. The fruit on the palate doesn't match the nose, as it is much higher-toned, with crisp, bright red currant and pepper notes and a blast of orange citrus that comes on at the end. Drink from 2024-2033. 530 Views Tasted Mar 9, 2024 |

Château du Cartillon (Haut-Médoc)
Round, and polished with a soft, ripe, easy to like medium-bodied, fruit-packed mid-palate and finish. Forward and already quite easy to like, you can enjoy this on release with ease. Drink from 2023-2037. 1,374 Views Tasted Mar 29, 2022Medium/full-bodied, bright and fresh with a big juicy gulp of chocolate-covered blackberry and cherry. Richly textured, round and with dusty tannins in the finish, give this just a few years in the cellar to fill out a bit more. 90-92 Pts 2,327 Views Tasted Jun 8, 2020 |

Château du Cartillon (Haut-Médoc)
Much better in bottle than in barrel, this has really added a lot of character during the aging process. Dark in color, with flowers, and black with red fruits, the wine is lush, round and loaded with sweet, juicy fruits. This is a perfect example of a well-priced Left Bank gem. 1,565 Views Tasted Mar 9, 2021 |
