Château Corbin
St. Émilion Grand Cru Red Bordeaux Blend
Deep purple fruit, luxurious mouth feel, charcoal on the finish. Fresh and deceptively tannic. Sure to age well.

Deep crimson with slightly red tint, opaque, compact rim.
Classic Right Bank bouquet of black truffle, dark cherry, dark plum, licorice, medium extracted coffee.
Soft but full of character - as classic as it gets. Silky mouthfeel, always full of dimensions. Blueberry, blackberry, raspberry, cocoa, with a trace of jammy fruit but not overly so.
Drank at Logis de la Cadene in St Emilion. Superb wine with plenty left in the tank. 91++
