De Carlmagnus Fronsac 2014 (WA 90-92)

“The Château Carlmagnus 2014 definitely has one of the best set of aromatics that I encountered from Fronsac. Tasted alongside La Dauphine there is more freshness and delineation without compensating on fruit intensity. The palate is clean and fresh with great acidity, energetic and citrus fresh with a firm grip on the finish. What a superb wine for the vintage. Chapeau!” Wine Advocate 90-92 Points

“Vivid and fresh red with plum and currant character. Some spices, too. Medium to full body, firm and silky tannins and a long finish. Pretty tangy acidity undernearth.” James Suckling 90 Points

“This has a ripe, fleshy feel, with warm plum paste and cassis notes gliding along atop juniper and tobacco accents. The solid grip through the finish has a light brambly feel but is easily absorbed by the fruit.” Wine Spectator 90 Points
