Description
Château Carbonnieux red has for centuries been a great classic from the region of Bordeaux. With its high standard of quality, it is the smooth result of an excellent blending of grape varieties from this region
The vinification, both modern and traditional of red wines, is carried out by slow and gentle extraction in order to preserve the roundness of the wine and the mineral features of the soil.
The tannins are well balanced and silky in harmony with red fruits (blackcurrant, blackberry, cherry...) and reveal toasted notes from ageing in the finest quality French oak barrels.
Only the very best batches tasted are selected for the final blending of Château Carbonnieux red wines.

Tasting
Eye : The colour is both deep and shimmering.
Nose : of great finesse, combining black fruits and spices. The whole is harmonious and greedy.
Palate : The attack is silky, delicate and coated. The middle is full, structured and dense. The pleasure rises to a crescendo throughout the tasting and the finish is of remarkable length.
Food and wine pairing : all grilled, roasted, simmered or sauced meats, swordfish, tuna, cheese, chocolate dessert...
