Features

Body The body is the way a wine feels inside the mouth. Several factors, such as the alcohol content and the presence of tannins, contribute to the feel of the wine.

Freshness The freshness of a wine is defined by its level of acidity. Unlike rounded wines, fresh wines are easy to drink, and are more lively. Acidity plays a necessary part in a wine's structure.

Aging All wines do not have the same aging potential. Some are supposed to be consumed at a young age while others must be kept for longer periods of time.

Tannins Coming from stems, grape pips and their storage barrels, the tannin gives structure to red wines only.

Domain and appellation

CHÂTEAU CARBONNIEUX

Château Carbonnieux is located in the Pessac-Léognan appellation and is one of the oldest châteaux in Bordeaux. In 1956, Marc Perrin acquired the château, which became a classified growth in 1959 in both red and white. The 2021 is a Pessac-Léognan wine produced from vineyards spread over a mosaic of terroirs ranging from clay-limestone to Günzian gravel. 55 hectares are given over to red grape varieties. The vines are on average 25 years old. The entire vineyard has been awarded level 3 High Environmental Value certification. In 2021, 25% of the vineyard will be farmed organically. Harvested by hand, the grapes are sorted on the vine and before and after destemming. Fermentation lasts an average of 10 days in temperature-controlled stainless steel vats. The wine is matured for 15 to 18 months in Bordeaux barrels, 40% of which are new. Château Carbonnieux red 2021 is a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon (58%), Merlot (28%), Cabernet Franc (7%) and Petit Verdot (7%).
