Tasting Notes
Aroma
The bright merlot fruit dominates the nose with plummy fruit and
a hint of sweet spice.
Palate
The palate is juicy with black and blue fruits and good acidity
and persistence.
Vinification
The bunches are destemmed and following a gentle crush under-
go a pre-fermentation maceration for a couple of days to extract
the flavours and spices from the skins. Fermentation in stainless
steel follows (26°C), with regular pump overs. The wine sees no
oak maturation to preserve the intensity and freshness of the fruit.
Food Matching
Served at around 10-12 degrees C, a moreish red to drink on its
own or with pâtes and terrines, a charcuterie platter or a cow’s
milk hard cheese such as Comte or Gruyere.
Region Notes
Château Carbonneau was built around 1880, but ravaged by WWII
it was reduced to a dairy and cereal farm. Located on the eastern
limits of the Gironde where the Communes of Pessac sur Dordo-
gne and Gensac intersect, Château Carbonneau is at 75 metres. In
1992, 3rd generation Wilfrid Franc de Ferrière returned with his
New Zealand wife Jacqui and restored first the vineyards and then
the winery. Transition is underway to the 4th generation, Hugo,
Pierre and Margot, who are seeking to straddle both traditional
and contemporary wine styles. Château Carbonneau is organic
certified, and biodynamic farming is practiced. As such cattle
remain very important.
The organic certified vineyards have south to south-west exposure
and are aged up to 49 years.
