Slottet blev grundlagt i det 13. århundrede af benediktinermunke i Sainte-Croix Abbey. Château Carbonnieux er dermed en af de ældste ejendomme i Bordeaux-regionen. I 1956 købte Marc Perrin slottet, der i 1959 blev klassificeret som Cru Classé, for både sine røde og hvide vine.
I dag, har Eric og Philibert, Marc Perrins børnebørn, overtaget ansvaret og de fortsætter det bemærkelsesværdige arbejde, deres far Antony Perrin igangsatte. Carbonnieux har altid nydt godt af placeringen på et fint og naturligt drænet grusplateau. Inden for Pessac-Léognan appellation, er dette prestigefyldte terroir særdeles eftertragtet, og her produceres nogle af appellationens allerbedste vine, hvilket har været et anerkendt faktum i århundreder.

The 2020 Carbonnieux has turned out nicely, like its white counterpart, exhibiting aromas of plums, cassis and cherries mingled with hints of pencil shavings. Medium to full-bodied, rich and gourmand, with powdery tannins and a succulent core of fruit, it's an elegant effort from this large Pessac estate.
From a region that excelled in 2020, the 2020 Château Carbonnieux sports a deep purple hue to go with a killer bouquet of ripe blackcurrants, leafy tobacco, scorched earth, and graphite. It's rich, concentrated, and medium to full-bodied on the palate, with a beautiful mid-palate as well as building, ripe tannins. This stunning effort warrants 3-4 years of bottle age and will evolve for 10-15 years in cold cellars.
Blackcurrants, raspberries, crushed stone, bark, and dark mushroom. Licorice, too. Full-bodied with chewy tannins that are minerally and intense. Tangy undertone with plenty going on. Very structured. Solid wine from this estate. Best after 2027.
