A striking white Bordeaux, the 2021 Carbonnieux Blanc delights with aromas of citrus zest, peach, mint, and a touch of pastry cream. Satiny and fresh, the palate offers richness balanced by crisp acidity and saline minerality. Sauvignon Blanc-driven yet texturally rich, this is a modern, vibrant white with real depth and aging potential. Best enjoyed from 2026 onward.

Critic reviews

Wine Enthusiast, 95/100

Vinous, 94/100

The 2021 Carbonnieux Blanc has a relatively spicy bouquet, very slight touches of muscat filtering through the citric fruit. The palate is medium-bodied with a spicy entry and good weight. Persistent in the mouth, leaving behind a long, saline aftertaste. This is another excellent dry white Bordeaux.

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 94/100

Notions of citrus zest, fresh mint, peach, pastry cream and Sauvignon botanicals introduce the 2021 Carbonnieux Blanc, a medium-bodied, satiny wine that's ample and precise. It's an attractive example of the modern school of white Bordeaux, even if anyone who has tasted older vintages from the 1960s or 1970s—when the wines were less Sauvignon-driven and aromatic but more textural and sapid—will inevitably be disappointed.
