Tasting Notes

The dark berry and iodine aromas are fascinating with bark and black tea undertones. Medium to full body, juicy fruit and a savory finish. Hints of tobacco and chocolate. A long time favorite. Drink in 2020.

Medium garnet-purple in color, the 2015 Carbonnieux is very earthy with fallen leaves, mossy bark and damp soil notions with a core of red currants and black raspberries plus a waft of wild thyme. The medium-bodied palate is firm, grainy and fresh with delicate red fruits and an earthy finish. 2019 - 2034

Deep crimson. Finest of tannins framing dark, elegant fruit. Complete and refined, subtle but with the promise of a long life. Savoury, rocky graphite finish. (JH) 2022 – 2035
