Description
Situated in the heart of Vouvray, Domaine Vincent Careme is the mastermind of young and dynamic Vincent Careme, The estate, overseen by Vincent and his wife Tania, currently spans 37 acres with different blocks spread over three villages: Vouvray, Vernou-sur-Brenne and Noizay. Most of the blocks are on steep slopes overlooking the Loire valley with two of them, Le Clos (meaning enclosed vineyard) and Le Peu Morier, being vinified separately to express their unique terroirs. All of Domaine Vincent Careme’s wines are certified organic from 2010 onwards by Ecocert in France. Seductive aromatics entice with hints of apricot and truffles that lead to a decadent, well structured, full palate. Seamless notes of honeysuckle and cream linger on a lengthy, satisfying finish.

Chateau du Retout, Haut-Medoc, 2018
68.5% Cabernet Sauvignon, 24.5% Merlot and 7% Petit Verdot planted here, the vines grow on a gravel ridge, close to Lamarque, where one can catch a ferry across the Gironde estuary to Blaye. Great care is taken in the vineyards, with ploughing between the rows and only natural fertiliser made from horse manure and organic waste from the vines used. This 2018 is a truly appetizing bottle, with aromas of ripe damson and plum, very pure. There is a lovely fleshy texture, with fine tannins and super length to finish.
Chateau Guiraud, Sauternes, 2017
First Growth. Premier Cru Classe in 1855. Every autumn a microscopic fungus called le « Botrytis Cinerea » appears and transforms the grapes. This is the famous 'noble rot' that is Nature's gift to Chateau Guiraud. In autumn the grapes take on a dark colour which can even seem austere, but this 'noble rot' is a precursor of aromatic expression. Understanding this phenomenon is essential as only the grapes that have been perfectly concentrated by the Botrytis will be picked one by one.
Les Tours de Laroque, Saint-Emilion grand cru, 2018
This exceptional second wine from the French vineyard Château Laroque near Bordeaux is a true delight, with a fragrant bouquet of intense fruit and dark notes. A perfect harmony of black cherry, cassis and plum liqueur unfolds on the palate, complemented by elegant tannin and a tremendous finish. This juicy fruit and the velvety tannin of Saint-Émilion are precisely what give Laroque wines their signature finesse.
