The estate and the wine |
|
|
An idol of Pessac-Léognan, Château Carbonnieux is one of the few châteaux whose reputation has been built around its white wine. Extremely delicate and elegant, it is undeniably one of the greatest of the Bordeaux vineyards.
Nowadays, the estate is at its peak and excels in both colors, with wines of remarkable intensity and aging potential. The regularity of the estate is rare enough to be underlined and whatever the vintage, Carbonnieux always expresses the best characteristics of the Léognan terroir. |

|
| |
|
Generous and delicate, the 2018 White Pessac-Léognan Croix de Carbonnieux displays great aromas of fresh fruit with a pleasant liveliness and plenty of elegance. Notes of citrus and white flowers take turns around a fine, balanced frame with strong flavors of fruit. An excellent deal! |
