Château Carbonneau Cuvée Classique

$13.00

Varietal Birthplace Year
Merlot Bordeaux AOC 2009
The wines produced at Château Carbonneau are the fruit of a unique soil type which gives the appellation of Sainte-Foy Bordeaux all its originality and elegance. Made from 85% Merlot and 15% Cabernet Sauvignon, the wine is a focused and accessible Bordeaux with aromas of black currant, black plum and conifer with notions of graphite, leather and tar. The nose carries over to the palate with accents of mocha and vanilla bean.
Black currant, black plum, conifer, graphite, leather, tar and shoe polish.
In the heart of the Bordeaux, Château Carbonneau is ideally situated 15 miles from Saint Emilion and 25 miles from Bergerac. Winner of the 2009 international “Best Of” prize for accommodation in the Great Wine Capitals network, Jacquie and Wilfrid Franc de Ferrière receive guests in their superb 19th-century château as well as offering visits and tastings of their Sainte-Foy Bordeaux appellation wines. The five guest rooms have breathtaking views of the park and surrounding vineyard. The décor is elegant but comfortable with a blend of French family antiques and fresh country charm. Plan your trip now!
This is a wine that begs to be paired with food. The fine astringency and balanced acidity in this mediumbodied wine makes it well suited for a great variety of foods and cuisines. This Merlot blend could use a good grilled steak to match with its balanced fruit, spice flavors and elegant tannin, but I suggest my Spiral Rolled Filet of Beef with Pesto.
The city of Bordeaux has more than 350 classified buildings and buildings listed as Historic Monuments, including 3 religious World Heritage buildings that are part of the Routes of Santiago de Compostela in France.
