Château Carbonnieux est, à la fois, l'un des plus anciens, mais aussi l'un des plus vastes crus classés des Graves.
C’est l’un des Carbonnieux blancs les plus impressionnants dégustés en primeur. Puissant,intense, mais lumineux. Porté par une finale tonique.
Really delicious and intense Carbonnieux already with lemon-rind, green-apple and lime character. Medium body. Energetic finish.
«The Carbonnieux 2018 Blanc features intense lime juice, yuzu and green mango scents with touches of lemon curd and white pepper. Medium-bodied, very tightly wound and zesty in the mouth, it has a racy backbone and a mineral-laced finish.»
Whole lemon, green mango and bell pepper on the nose with a hint of chalk. It’s medium-bodied with bright acidity and a creamy, honeyed texture. Drink or hold.
The Carbonnieux 2018 Blanc leaps from the glass with invigorating notes of fresh lemons, wild thyme and green apples, plus touches of chalk dust and white pepper. The medium-bodied palate has a good intensity of citrus and herbal flavors with soft, approachable acidity and a white pepper laced finish.
A brisk lemon pith note flanks a core of lemon curd, honeysuckle, tarragon, oyster shell and salted butter notes, with a hint of warm, herbed focaccia on the finish adding range and contrast. Delicious. Sauvignon Blanc and Sémillon. Drink now through 2026.
