Château Carbonnieux is one of the distinguished names in Pessac-Leognan, producing wines that reflect both the power of the region and the finesse that comes from years of careful cultivation. The 2017 vintage is a beautiful example of Bordeaux’s balance of ripe fruit and earthy complexity. A blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, it combines structure with elegance.

The wine opens with deep aromas of black currant, plum, and hints of cedar, followed by subtle earthy notes of tobacco and leather. On the palate, Carbonnieux is full-bodied with smooth tannins that provide a firm yet graceful backbone. The finish is long, with a touch of minerality and savory complexity that lingers.

This is a wine that shows the classic characteristics of Pessac-Leognan—elegant, age-worthy, and complex. Perfect with grilled meats, roasted vegetables, or a selection of aged cheeses, it’s a Bordeaux that will continue to evolve over the next decade.

Antonio Galloni

93 points

"The 2017 Carbonnieux is dark and intense in the glass. Swaths of tannin wrap around a core of dark fruit in this decidedly potent, Pessac-Léognan. Orange peel, incense, spice, sweet tobacco and cedar add a super appealing exotic flair as the 2017 builds with time in the glass. Another few years in bottle should help things come together even more fully." —Vinous

Decanter

"Intense fruit flavours on the nose, with clear definition to raspberry, blueberry and brambly fruits. Medium bodied and a little soft through the mid palate, but plenty to enjoy over the next six to 12 years."

Wine Spectator

93 points

"This packs solid blackberry, red currant and boysenberry fruit paste flavors together, all inlaid with tar and licorice snap notes. A bold brambly edge infuses the finish with grip and energy. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot. Best from 2022 through 2035."

Wine Enthusiast

93 points

"The ripeness of this wine creeps up slowly to reveal swaths of black fruits and a densely tannic core. The wine is layered with acidity that balances the black-currant flavors. The wine will age well."
