Château Carbonnieux 2011 Barrel sample White (Pessac-Léognan)

  • Online Exclusive
93-95. Barrel sample. Very herbaceous in character, this is a wine that is packed with powerful acidity yet remains elegant in style. It has minerality and tight acidity, and should benefit from aging.  — R.V.  (5/11/2012)

92-94 Barrel sample. Big and bold, this wine may lack grace, but it has many other attractive elements, like its ripe fruits, its Technicolor tannins and its dark flavors.  — R.V.  (6/20/2006)

Ripe and solid, this has dense tannins and a superstructure of opulent red-berry and black currant fruits. The wine is layered with coffee, wood-aging influence and a firm finish. It’s big and has great potential.  — R.V.  (9/1/2012)

Château Carbonnieux 2010 Red (Pessac-Léognan)

Big, dusty tannins are forward on this firmly structured wine. Very dense in its character and style, serious and dark, it will develop slowly as its more juicy side begins to show through.  — R.V.  (5/1/2013)

Château Carbonnieux 2010 White (Pessac-Léognan)

  • Online Exclusive
A delicate, classically textured white wine, this is a pure combination of apricot and lemon fruits with crisp, delicious acidity despite the wood aging. A great success in its restrained style, this should age well.  — R.V.  (5/1/2013)

Full-bodied, smooth wine, with spice and black plum fruit flavors packed into the sweet tannic structure. It’s solid and chunky, a sign of the greater concentration coming out of Carbonnieux in recent years.  — R.V.  (4/1/2011)
