Antonio Galloni

The 2021 Les Carmes Haut-Brion is very possibly the wine of the vintage. Vertical and explosive, the 2021 possesses mind-blowing intensity and dynamic energy to burn. The 2021 is a heady, racy wine that captivates all the senses. Tobacco, mocha, cedar, leather, dried herbs, menthol, licorice and plum saturate the palate in a wine that dazzles from start to finish. The 2021 was bottled in late September 2023, much later than most wines, yet it is so expressive today. It was magnificent from barrel, and it is every bit as breathtaking today. Quite simply, Les Carmes is on another level. Bravo!

Tasted blind. Meaty, concentrated nose. Graves? Smells of soy sauce. Rich and hedonistic. Untrammelled by the vintage conditions. Lots of power but not sweetness. The first wine I have been tempted to swallow. Not that long though. (JR)
