Description: | <p class="MsoNormal">Winemaker notes: Chateau Carbonnieux red has for centuries been a great classic from the region of Bordeaux. 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.<o:p></o:p></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="FR">Blend: 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot, 5% Cabernet Franc, 5% Petit Verdot<o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal">Pair this wine alongside your favorite grilled or roasted meat, swordfish, tuna, and cheeses.<o:p></o:p></p> <p class="MsoNormal">(94 JD) The 2019 Chateau Carbonnieux sports a deep purple/ruby hue to go with a brilliant nose of red and black currants, spring flowers, spicy oak, and hints of tobacco. It's beautiful on the palate as well and is medium to full-bodied, has a seamless, elegant texture, ripe tannins, and a great finish. It's the finest wine I've tasted from this estate. The blend is 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot, and the balance Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot, all brought up in 40% new barrels. It's well worth tracking down some bottles and will keep for two decades<o:p></o:p></p> |
