Domaine de Cartujac Haut-Medoc 2012

Formerly a sheep farm, this estate has produced a rounded, fruity wine with red-berry flavors and soft tannins. 

Deep red color with purplish reflections. A first nose that does not hide its breeding. When aired, it gives way to fruity aromas of blackcurrant and crushed strawberries. The mouth is initially greedy but quickly gives way to a more vinous and tannic flesh with a strong vanilla accent. Some notes of cherries in brandy and mushrooms to complement. Serve loosely over a roasted shoulder of lamb.
