Chateau Carbonnieux Pessac-Leognan 2012

There is a lot to like in this luscious, fruit forward offering where extraction was not overdone. The wine is nicely balanced with a style, given its earthiness, floral, bay leaf and red and black fruit characteristics. Ripe and medium-bodied with excellent texture, cleanliness and overall equilibrium.

Racy and refined with a perfumed and sweet fruit character. Full body, yet condensed and very silky texture. A really pretty wine from here.
