Le Cartel Alicante-Henri-Bouschet VdF 2022 exemplifies the pinnacle of meticulous winemaking in the renowned Languedoc region. Crafted by the esteemed Le Cartel Winery, this vintage blends the robust Alicante Bouschet with the vibrant Henri Bouschet grapes, sourced from their premier vineyards nestled in fertile terroirs. Hand-harvested in optimal ripeness, the grapes undergo a precise fermentation process in temperature-controlled stainless steel vats, preserving their innate fruitiness and structure. Following fermentation, the wine is aged for 12 months in French oak barrels, imparting subtle vanilla and spice nuances while allowing the flavours to harmoniously integrate. The result is a rich, full-bodied wine with deep ruby hues, characterised by layers of dark berry fruits, hints of earthy undertones, and a velvety tannin profile. Le Cartel Alicante-Henri-Bouschet VdF 2022 offers a sophisticated palate experience, reflecting the producer’s unwavering dedication to quality and tradition. |

Vinous - Stephen Tanzer (89)Full red-ruby color. Youthful aromas of spicy cherry and sweet leather. Bright, pure and firmly structured; rather backward for this wine but offers plenty of sweetness. Finishes with substantial but sweet tannins and very good persistence. Serious second wine. |

Vinous - Antonio Galloni (93)The 2005 Bahans Haut-Brion is the second wine from Haut-Brion, known today as Le Clarence. A huge, virile red, the 2005 exudes intensity from start to finish. Black cherry, plum, smoke, tobacco, gravel and cured meats blast across the palate. The wine’s richness, heft and power are truly remarkable. Today, the 2005 comes across as shockingly young. This heady, exotic Pessac-Léognan has much to offer. It’s price naturally reflects its position as a second wine to a First Growth, yet the 2005 is a serious wine that has a ton to offer. |

Vinous - Stephen Tanzer (89)Good deep red. Black raspberry, sassafras, road tar and spicy oak on the nose. Sweet berry fruit shows an almost liqueur-like creaminess, but a peppery element and good underlying minerality lend grip to the finish, which features a fine dusting of tannins and nice cedary persistence. An excellent second wine. |

James Suckling (95)This is very, very Haut-Brion. Perhaps this second wine is like the gran vin in 1995? Full body, with rich ripe tannins, with a silky texture. It is dense and powerful. Long and rich. Better in 2016. Best second wine of Haut-Brion ever? It has just about everything Haut-Brion has in an excellent year like this. Try in 2019. |

Vinous - Antonio Galloni (91)The 2012 Le Clarence de Haut-Brion is a dark, beguiling beauty. Smoke, violets, dried flowers and savory herbs lead to a core of expressive blue/purplish fruit in a powerful wine that is going to need time to settle down. Far from an easygoing 2012, the Clarence boasts notable depth and intensity to match its virile personality. This is an impressive second wine, that much is obvious. |

Vinous - Antonio Galloni (89-91)The 2013 Le Clarence de Haut-Brion is soft, silky and medium in body. Rose petals, mint and sweet red berries all lift from the glass in an intensely floral wine supported by beams of mineral and graphite notes. Silky tannins add finesse to the supple, gracious finish. The 2013 is 57% Merlot, 27% Cabernet Sauvignon and 16% Cabernet Franc. |
