The 2010 vintage was rated: Bettane & Desseauve 15.5/20 (Immediate pleasure)
Light, delicious, and easy to drink, the Rouge Carmen cuvée is above all a wine that offers immediate pleasure through its fruitiness. A blend of Gamay, Grolleau, and Cabernet Franc, the estate seeks to express the fruit here, resulting in a round and flavorful palate. This cuvée, which has already won over several top-rated Michelin-starred restaurants, will accompany all your moments of conviviality!
