Chateau Carlmagnus 2020

Put Simply This Is An Amazing Buy On Spectacular Bordeaux, Huge Press, Great Vintage, Drinks Like Its Three Times The Price, An Absolute Steal Under Twenty.

I could not believe! I was shocked after tasting this wine that we could offer it under twenty a bottle. Finding wines like these makes the hunt so worthwhile: tasting, comparing, discarding, doing the homework and finding hidden gems like a wine like this.

The wine got a huge 93pts by Parker. The wine comes from the excellent 2020 vintage for Bordeaux which received 95pts by Parker for the vintage; the vintage is outstanding with exceptional structure and depth. This Chateau has become one of the jewels of the Fronsac Appellation on the right bank of Bordeaux, neighboring the famous Pomerol and Saint Emilion Appellations. Once in a while you find an incredible wine from Fronsac, whose wines fly under the radar where you can find a high caliber Bordeaux at a fraction of the cost. If this was from Pomerol are Saint Emilion, it would be three times the price and more. The wine is the Château Carlmagnus 2020, delivering rich dark fruit and velvety structure without the steep price tag of neighboring Pomerol or Saint-Émilion. With time in the bottle, you will get great enjoyment drinking in the fall and winter ahead or lay down in the cellar for 7-10 years to develop even greater depth and sophistication. Finding wines like this makes what we do worthwhile. Spectacular quality at a great price! A great case buy! The wine journey continues!
