Chateau Carbonneau "Margot"

Bright and precise, with a sense of morning light to it, this opens on grapefruit zest, Granny Smith apple, and passionfruit, edged by a clean mineral thread that nods to Bordeaux’s clay-limestone soils. The palate is lively and focused, layering tangy citrus and crisp orchard fruit over vibrant acidity, with subtle lees contact lending just enough texture to keep things balanced. The finish is long, clean, and refreshing, leaving citrus peel and mineral echoes behind. A characterful, highly drinkable Bordeaux Sauvignon Blanc that feels fresh and inviting without slipping into simplicity.
