This Cru Bourgeois Supérieur has a very strong color. It’s intense nose, always elegant, delivers aromas of ripe fruit embellished with notes of spices and liquorice. The mouthfeel is the balanced and is remarkably constant. Ripe and velvety tannins accompany a long and vanilla finish. Like all great Médocans, the wine of Chateau du Cartillon flourishes wonderfully over time.
