Château Carbonnieux
Pessac-Léognan White Bordeaux Blend
Pessac-Léognan, Graves, Bordeaux, France
Blend of 65% Sauvignon Blanc & 35% Semillon, pale lemon-green with pronounce aromas of tropical and stone fruits with herb notes. On the palate flavors of melon, mango, apple, green peppers and a touch of citrus. Medium+ length, balanced acidity, ending with a fruit and herbal character. Very good to drink now, will benefit from bottle aging. Tasting Sample.

Star bright straw gold. Abundant nose of white peach, lemon, lemongrass; adding green apple, golden kiwi, and a bit of birch on the medium full palate. Long finish adds a wee bit of earth. Geez! A fantastic representative of classic Bordeaux Blanc. Enjoy with sea bass for a classic pair, but any white flesh fish will be abundantly happy. Drink now through 2028.

Wonderfully fragrant nose of citrus, tropical fruit, and juicy stone fruit with a subtle background of wet stone, thyme, sorel, and verbena. Would rate higher based on the complexity and fragrance, but the finish is a bit weak.
