Blended from Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, Pessac-Leognan wines are beautifully balanced with fine-grained structured tannins, and exhibit classic notes of tobacco, cassis, dark cherry, leather and tar, as well as a distinctive minerality.With a nose so fresh, so floral, so seductive, you can almost smell the salinity, Les C des Carmes has a very fluid mouth, rolled up quite well with hints of ink. It is an opulent wine that needs a little time to open up. It ends with accents of blue fruits, sap and blackcurrant leaves.
