Antonio Galloni bewertete (01/2025) Château Les Carmes Haut Brion 2022 wie folgt: “ The 2022 Les Carmes Haut-Brion is a towering masterpiece from Technical Director Guillaume Pouthier. Dark and seamless in the glass, the 2022 presents an exotic mélange of black cherry, lavender, sage, blood orange, menthol, espresso and dried flowers, showing tremendous depth and substance in all of its dimensions. Time in the glass hints as to what is to come in the years and decades that follow. The 2022 is a co-ferment of 40% Cabernet Franc, 34% Cabernet Sauvignon and 26% Merlot done with 70% stems that saw six full weeks on the skins. Élevage is 70% new oak, 20% 18HL cask and 10% amphora. Most importantly, all the elements are so well balanced that nothing sticks out. Instead, it is the wine’s total sense of harmony that is mind-blowing. Magnificent.“- 100 Punkte
Parker’s Wine Advocate bewertete (04/2023) Château Les Carmes Haut Brion 2022 wie folgt: „The remarkable 2022 Les Carmes Haut-Brion is a strong candidate for the title of wine of the vintage. It’s also one of the most singular, characterful wines being produced in the region today. Unfurling in the glass with complex aromas of blackberries and cherries mingled with notions of exotic spices, orange zest, pencil lead, rose petals and vine smoke, it’s medium to full-bodied, deep and concentrated, with a velvety attack that segues into a layered, seamless and multidimensional mid-palate framed by rich, powdery tannins. Pure, perfumed and penetrating, this blend of 40% Cabernet Franc, 34% Cabernet Sauvignon and 26% Merlot is a brilliant success that caps a decade of relentless work by Guillaume Pouthier and his team that have seen Les Carmes Haut-Brion emerge as one of Bordeaux’s leading estates“- 99-100 Punkte
Vvwine.ch bewertete (04/2023) Château Les Carmes Haut Brion 2022 wie folgt: „Die Nase ist ein Parfüm, eine Droge, das gehört zu diesen Weinen, die sofort, bei der ersten Nase schon, die Gänsehaut generiert, tiefgründig, kühl, pinoesk, Cassis, Brombeeren, Rosen, Veilchen, sogar Lavendelblüten, das ist ein Gedicht, man könnte stundenlang schnuppern. Im Gaumen straff, dicht und präzis, der Wein baut viel Druck auf, zeigt eine grosse Konzentration, bleibt dabei hochelegant, die Würze, die Frische, die perfekte Tanninstruktur, hier ist alles im Lot. Im Abgang von fast endloser Länge, und mit einer Frische, die seinesgleichen Sucht. Dieser Les Carmes Haut-Brion erzählt Geschichten; er ist einmal mehr verblüffend anders, als alles andere, was ich probieren konnte, wird in jeder Phase seines Lebens Spass machen und hat grosse Reserven. 2028 bis 2065+“- 98-100 Punkte
Jeb Dunnuck bewertete (04/2023) Château Les Carmes Haut Brion 2022 wie folgt: „I think one of the legendary wines in the vintage will be the 2022 Château Les Carmes Haut-Brion, which comes from a tiny vineyard not far from Haut-Brion and is based on 40% Cabernet Franc, 34% Cabernet Sauvignon, and the rest Merlot, vinified with 70% whole clusters, and aged 70% in new barrels, 20% in foudre, and 10% in amphora. Despite mostly being not destemmed, you wouldn’t know it by tasting it. It has a classic bouquet of ripe blackberries, cassis, leafy herbs, graphite, and violets, while in contrast, the C Des Carmes Haut-Brion, which is vinified with just 30% stems, is clearly marked more by its stems. Full-bodied, concentrated, beautifully balanced, and with a rare mix of purity, freshness, and power, it’s going to rival the 2018 as one of the finest vintages ever produced from this address. It’s worth noting this estate has a unique terroir in Pessac that includes some limestone in the soils, and this worked particularly well in 2022. Don’t miss this wine“- 98-100 Punkte
