Chateau Carbonnieux 2017
Bordeaux Red Blend from Pessac-Leognan, Bordeaux, France
Winemaker Notes
The 2017 red vintage is enhanced by its freshness and rich fruity character such as raspberry and blackcurrant without an excess of maturity. The analyses show an important intensity in color giving a beautiful garnet red. In the mouth, the entry is delicate, the mid-palate is compact and sweet at the same time. All this gives a fine long structured finish. 2017 will be a vintage full of finesse.
Wine Enthusiast – 93 Points
The ripeness of this wine creeps up slowly to reveal swaths of black fruits and a densely tannic core. The wine is layered with acidity that balances the black-currant flavors. The wine will age well. Drink from 2023.
Food Pairing
Pairs well with grilled, roast, or stewed meat, swordfish, tuna fish, mushrooms, seasonal vegetables or legumes, cheese, as well as chocolate or red fruit desserts.
