The Château Carbonnieux vineyard stretches across well-exposed slopes, benefiting from optimal natural drainage thanks to the composition of its soils. The vines, several decades old, are rooted in a clay-limestone terroir, ideal for red grape varieties. The diversity of the plots allows for plot-by-plot vinification, guaranteeing a unique aromatic complexity. The climatic conditions, tempered by the influence of the Atlantic Ocean, contribute to the quality of the grapes, promoting slow and even ripening.
