Chateau Carbonnieux, Pessac-Leognan Rouge, 2014 NO UPC aged 15-16 months on fineFounded by Benedictine monks in the 13th century, Carbonnieux is one of Bordeaux's oldest estates and a Grand Cru Class de Graves. The 2014 vintage benefited from cool summer conditions and meticulous harvesting that preserved the wine's aromas. The Pessac Lognan terroir shines througha delicate nose of gravel, sous bois, and blackberry evolves into a medium bodied palate with fine tannins and a keen line of acidity that creates tension and vibrancy.
