Chateau Carbonnieux Rouge 2004

Chateau Carbonnieux Rouge 2004

The wine is a dark ruby colour, with bright flashes. The nose is expressive and complex. Roasted aromas mingle with black fruit, blackcurrant, mulberry, prune and cherry. Powerful, rich and full-bodied upon initial taste. The mellow tannins allow a powerful and aromatic wine to express itself. A fine success for the vintage. Pair with red meat.

This sleeper of the vintage is a dead-ringer for a grand cru red Burgundy given its flowery, raspberry, and cherry jam-like notes. Medium-bodied, delicate, and pure with abundant fruit, this provocative red turned in by proprietor Anthony Perrin ranks alongside this estates renowned whites. It can be drunk now or cellared for another 10 years. 90 Points, Robert Parker, 2007
