Description
When young, Carbonnieux is delightfully refreshing and pure with a fruity, floral intensity. When mature it develops hints of dried and candied fruits giving scope for a large range of gastronomic pairings. Semillon grapes add structure to the liveliness of the Sauvignon grapes by giving them roundness and volume on the palate. Any raw or cooked fish, crustaceans, shellfish, foie gras, any poultry or white meat, sweetbreads, spicy dishes (curry, tajine, etc.), cheeses, fruit desserts, sorbet, etc.

Expert Reviews
"This estate, particularly well known for its white wines, has lived up to its reputation in this new release. The wine is rich while also taut, young and textured. Spice from wood aging comes in at the end. Drink from 2026. Cellar Selection"
"Spiced lemon, ginger, gooseberries and minerals on the nose. Broad, medium- to full-bodied palate with fresh acidity and a zippy finish. 65% sauvignon and 35% semillon."
