Producer: Château Carbonnieux holds the distinguished honour of being one of only six estates classified for both red and white wines in the 1959 Graves Classification, with its winemaking heritage dating back to the 13th century. Located in the heart of Pessac-Léognan, the château's 42 hectares of white grape vineyards benefit from the region's distinctive gravel soils mixed with clay and limestone subsoils. The Perrin family, proprietors since 1956, have meticulously maintained traditional Bordeaux white winemaking techniques whilst embracing modern precision, employing barrel fermentation and extended lees aging to craft wines of remarkable complexity and longevity that exemplify the sophisticated elegance of Graves' finest terroir.

Our Delivery Service

We use reliable third-party express courier services and high-quality insulated packaging. While our couriers are generally excellent, occasional delays can happen. We pack everything to stay fresh, even if transit takes a little longer.

Time-Sensitive & Event Orders

Can we guarantee delivery on a specific day? Unfortunately not - we rely on third-party couriers and can't control their schedules. All items leave us in perfect condition with good use-by dates, but final timing depends on the courier.

If your order is for a specific event, let us know in the notes section at checkout. We can often dispatch a day earlier to give you the best chance of timely arrival.

DELIVERY Changes After Dispatch

Once dispatched, your package is with the courier and we're unable to redirect it or change delivery details.

Saturday delivery is available, though please note our couriers don't operate phone support at weekends and our office is closed. For event-critical orders, a weekday delivery gives us more flexibility to help if any issues arise.
