Château Carbonnieux 2022 – Pessac-Léognan Cru Classé

The nose is racy and offers a certain concentration, intensity as well as a little power of the grain. There are notes of fresh blackberries, violet, iris and slight notes of wild raspberries combined with touches of spices, nutmeg and pepper. The palate is fruity and offers minerality, juiciness, a tangy structure, tension and accuracy. There is a nice energy. On the palate this wine expresses notes of juicy and pulpy blackberries, pulpy cherries and small notes of crushed raspberries associated with touches of cornflower, lily, hints of nutmeg, cardamom as well as a hint of clove and fresh sweet spices. The tannins are supple and fresh. It is a wine with elegance, smooth freshness and a fine hint of coffee in the background.
