VINUM: "Zurückhaltend; aber enorm komplex, blumige Kräuternoten; voller Ansatz, fast ölige und doch auch gleichsam ätherische, und gleichzeitig unglaublich dichte Entwicklung, extrem langes, mineralisch-fruchtiges Finale mit Akzenten von Eukalyptus; verblüffender weisser Carbonnieux aus einer anderen Dimension."

JAMES SUCKLING: "Very Carbonnieux with apple and oyster shell character as well as a medium to full body and a delicious finish. Well done."

THE WINE ADVOCATE: "A blend of 65% Sauvignon and 35% Sémillon, the 2022 Carbonnieux Blanc reveals a delicate bouquet with aromas of lemon, jasmine, linden, smoke, pear and peach, followed by a medium to full-bodied, fleshy and concentrated palate that's deep and harmonious, with a bright core of fruit and a zesty, mineral-driven finish. Built around racy acids, this is a very classy Carbonnieux Blanc that's built to age with grace. Harvest here began early, on 16 August."

JEB DUNNUCK: "The 2022 Château Carbonnieux Blanc offers a light gold hue as well as a bright, racy, juicy style in its citrus, pineapple, and minty herb-like aromas and flavors. These carry over to the palate, where the wine is medium-bodied, has notable purity, and outstanding length."

THE WINE CELLAR INSIDER: "Flowers, green apples, tangerine, pineapple, and honey notes are packed into the perfume. Rich, oily white peaches, and yellow citrus with a drizzle of tart green apple combine to fill your palate with a touch of crushed rocks on the backend. The wine blends 65% Sauvignon Blanc and 35% Semillon. Drink from 2024-2030."

Am schlanken Gaumen mit herrlicher Extraktfülle, stützender Rasse und zartem Kreideton. Im aromatischen Finale Agrumen, Orangenschale und Wachsnoten. Sehr gut gelungen dieses Jahr. 2024 – 2034."
