Producer Information
Chteau Carbonnieux is a wine estate based in the Pessac-Lognan region of Bordeaux where, in keeping with its regional reputation (in the Graves region south of Bordeaux town), it produces red and white wines across a variety of tiers and often to equal acclaim. The estate was founded in the 13th Century and, throughout the following six centuries, its ownership has passed between many of France’s bourgeois families. The modern history of the chteau began in the mid-1900s, when it was purchased by the Perrin family. The chteau and surrounding estate then went through a renovation which saw a new fermentation cellar and winery built, and an increase of vineyards from 45 to 92 hectares (111 to 227 acres). Both the red and white wines of Chteau Carbonnieux were classified as Grand Cru Class de Graves in 1959. The typical Bordeaux varieties of Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot, Petit Verdot, Sauvignon Blanc and Semillon are planted in the vineyards. The vines are, on average, 30 years old and are planted on soils rich in gravel, clay, sand and limestone that are naturally well draining. Chteau Carbonnieux strives to practice organic and sustainable farming throughout the vineyards.
