Château Carbonnieux Pessac Léognan Cru Classé de Graves 2005

A classic Pessac-Léognan that gives consistently enjoyable wines, this is unfussy but enjoyable, very much ready to drink. Old school and well balanced, there is a sense of momentum through the palate, still shows raspberry and redcurrant fruit, but acidity and tannins are holding this together, not necessarily the fruit. 35% new oak.
