La Tour Carnet 2015 (750ML)
"91-93 Points, Neal Martin, Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: ""The 2015 La Tour Carnet is a blend of 70% Merlot and 30% Cabernet Sauvignon. The fruit was cooled through a ""cryogenic tunnel freezer,"" essentially spraying liquid nitrogen, and will be matured for 16 months in 30% new oak. It has a very pure bouquet, so much so that there is something almost Pinot Noir-like here, with ebullient Morello and subtle kirsch-like scents. The oak is judicious and neatly integrated. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannin. This is very smooth and harmonious in the mouth, well-judged acidity, precise and detailed. It gently fans out on the finish, completing what I think is a very well-crafted, silky and seductive Haut-Médoc."" 4/16 "

Antonio Galloni
"Antonio Galloni, Vinous: ""The 2015 La Tour Carnet is soft, supple and inviting. Dark cherry, mocha, chocolate, spice and new leather are all pushed forward. There is good up-front richness and density, but the wine loses some persistence on the finish. This is an especially nuanced, laid-back vintage for the Tour Carnet, with less overall depth than is customary, but solid overall balance. The blend is 70% Merlot and 30% Cabernet Sauvignon. Tasted four times."" 4/16"

"91-92 Points, James Suckling: ""A fresh and clean wine with blueberry and light spice, mushroom character. Full, very fine. Shows a delicacy and finesse."" 4/16 "
