Expert Reviews
Brimming with blackberries, supple tannins and lively acidity, this is an immediately attractive St.-Emilion thatâs easy to enjoy with food now, but has the structure to age for some years. Drink or hold.
Blended of 89% Merlot and 11% Cabernet Franc aged in 50% new French oak for 18 months, the medium to deep garnet-purple colored 2016 Corbin has quite a meaty nose with smoked meats and beef drippings over a core of black plum preserves with hints of bay leaves and garrigue. The palate is medium to full-bodied, firm and grainy with a great core of muscular fruit and an earthy finish.
One of the oldest estates in St-Emilion, Corbin is linked by family ties to the Cruse owned estate of Chateau d'Issan in Margaux. Just over 12 hectares, Chateau Corbin is located close to Cheval Blanc and the Pomerol border. This is a classic Bordeaux wine, with dark colour, intensity of black fruit on nose and palate, married with fresh acidity, spices and fine-grained tannins.
