Lulu Rosé, Château Carbonneau, Sainte Foy, Bordeaux rose 2023

A pale powder rose colour with salmon highlights. The nose is delicious: boiled lollies, grenadine and sherbert. The attack is full and the palate soft with hints of pink grapefruit and candied citrus peel. The final is juicy and mouth-watering dominated by grapefruit zest.​

Drinks beautifully with salmon carpaccio, shell fish or gravalax.

Chateau Carbonneau is a family owned and run Chateau, situated on the eastern limits of the Gironde. The estate straddles the communes of Pessac sur Dordogne and Gensac at an altitude of 75m above sea-level. 

The Franc de Ferriere family took over the Chateau in 1992, Wilfred and Jacquie worked hard to renovate the property and vines. Today, their children join them, working to bring the Estate to full organic status in 2022 and biodynamics by 2023.
