Carbonnieux isn’t quite a white wine specialist — they make a lot of red wine too — but of all of Bordeaux’s important châteaux, they're the only one that makes about as much white wine as they make red. They take it seriously. And they make it in the region of Bordeaux that has been most successful at producing complex white wines: Graves.

Professional Reviews

Antonio Galloni

AG 93
"The 2022 Carbonnieux Blanc is classy and elegant from the first taste. Bright saline undertones drive through a core of citrus peel, white pepper, chalk, sage and mint. This brisk, dry white is impeccable and delicious."

Robert Parker

RP 93
"A blend of 60% Sauvignon Blanc and 40% Sémillon, the 2022 Carbonnieux Blanc evokes notes of boxwood, white flowers, spices, confit citrus and pear mingled with dominant Sauvignon Blanc-inflected notes. Medium to full-bodied, incisive and layered, it’s deeper than the 2021, with a round, enrobing palate, bright acids and a long, penetrating and mouthwatering finish complemented by a delicate gastronomic bitterness due to the dryness of the year. This is a great effort." -Yohan Castaing

Decanter

D 93
"Racy and alive on the palate, this thrills with lemon and lime acidity and some peach florality. Juicy and clean with some soft sweetness as well which gives added complexity and nuance. Green apple and pear on the finish with some wet stone minerality."

Wine Spectator

WS 93
"Bright and engaging, with chive oil, thyme and oyster shell notes blitzing to the fore, followed quickly by a second wave of enticing lemon pith, white peach and star fruit flavors through the long, fresh, pure finish. Someone bring the langoustines and saffron aioli. Sauvignon Blanc and Sémillon."
