A very reticent nose showing a little flowery fruit and oak. Lovely weight on the palate, huge texture, rolling across the palate, carrying and honey and barley sugar character. Very big and rich style, with good acidity. A lovely Lafaurie.

Deep red color.
The nose is still dominated by fresh fruit and elegant toasty notes.

This uniqueness comes from a greater presence of Merlot and select vineyard parcels dedicated to its production. The name originates from the Carruades plateau, a collection of plots acquired in 1845, situated near the château’s historic hillside vineyards.
