Chateau Les Calmes Haut Brion

In 1584, Jean de Pontac, the head of Haut-Brion, donated the vineyards and mills that are part of Haut-Brion to the Carmel Abbey. After that, it was owned by the Carmel Monastery for two centuries, and after the French Revolution it was bought by Negociants of Bordeaux and taken over by the current owner company Pichet Group. Originally part of Chateau Haut-Brion, it owns high-quality fields, and Robert Parker once said that it has a complexity comparable to Haut-Brion.

凝縮したブラックチェリー、カシスのアロマに、スパイス、土のニュアンス、ドライハーブ、生姜の皮、全房から来る塩っぽさなど厚みと複雑さのある風味。とても細かく滑らかなタンニン、かすかな旨味、これらとバランスを取る酸味。重たさはなく、それでいて充実した味わい。長い余韻。2023ヴィンテージの中でも傑出したワインの一つ。
