2006 vintage, nice for its age. On the slow decline but still a few years left.

Oaked white wines can be awesome. Especially with some age. Translucent boil onions, apricot, and pineapple. Yep, onions.

Oak is a bit apparent but still a classy wine.

2006, Chateau Carbonnieux, Pessac-Leognan, Semillon, Sauvignon Blanc Blend. Held on to this one do a while and it was worth it. It has aged incredibly well. The first thing I noticed was the vibrant, gold color. Gorgeous! It tastes just as good as it looks. Some oak but the fruit is the star: citrus, tart green apple, wet rock and great acidity. Well worth the wait. Only one bottle, makes me sad.

I haven't had many examples of Bordeaux Blanc with bottle age but this bottle is the inspiration to start exploring them. What started out fairly pale in its youth has matured into a wine of deep, glowing amber-golden nectar. Honey, papaya, hints of nectarine and apricot carry softer notes of beeswax and hay. Lithe, seemingly weightless, this wine still has a textural, resinous mouthfeel with all parts in balance and perfectly tuned. Fantastic white Bordeaux.

A strong balance of honey sweet/nuttiness and acidity. Very pleasant wine. At peak horizon. I have 2 more.
