The 2021 Chteau Carbonnieux Blanc is a vibrant and mineral-driven white Bordeaux that reflects the estates meticulous vineyard care during a cooler vintage. Sauvignon Blanc and Smillon were harvested at optimal ripeness, preserving freshness and aromatic intensity. Aromas of lemon zest, green apple, and elderflower lead into a crisp palate of citrus, white peach, and crushed stone, with a zesty, saline finish that makes it an ideal pairing for oysters or light seafood dishes.
