Tasted at a negociant. This has a very ripe nose that flirts with sur-maturite but pulls it back from the brink. Good definition: succulent black cherries, black plum and some glycerine. The palate is medium-bodied, fine tannins, very pure with good delineation, taut with minerality inflecting the black fruits on the off-dry, slightly brutish, tannic finish. I think this will soften nicely by the time of bottling and this represents good potential for the future. Tasted April 2010.
Lift and succulence on the nose. Then cool and admirably dry. Sandy but not sandpapery tannins. Appetising. For the elegant long haul.
A classic Pessac-Leognan, the 2009 Carbonnieux possesses aromas of sweet black currants and cherries intermixed with hints of roasted herbs, unsmoked cigar tobacco, charcoal and licorice. Medium to full-bodied with more concentration than many vintages, this surprisingly fleshy effort has more poundage and glycerin than this normally light-styled Bordeaux has offered in the past. Harmonious sweet tannins and low acidity give the wine a fleshy mouthfeel and immediate appeal, but most of its aromatic complexity will not emerge for another 5-7 years. It should keep for two decades or more. Feb 2012, www.robertparker.com
A little lean, with chewy tannins, medium to full body and a medium finish. Slightly short
