Château Les Carmes Haut-Brion is a Left Bank Bordeaux estate that was once part of the famed First Growth Château Haut-Brion. Situated in Pessac-Léognan the vineyards and wines are Merlot and Cabernet Franc dominant with only a small amount of Cabernet Sauvignon, an uncommon ratio for the commune.Under new ownership the property has been expanded significantly, from 4.7 hectares to 33ha, most of which is under vine. Planted almost evenly to Cabernet Franc and Merlot (42 and 40 percent, respectively), it has arguably the highest proportion of Cabernet Franc in any Pessac-Léognan vineyard. A second wine is made, called Clos de Carmes.
