Château Grand Corbin-Despagne
Saint-Émilion Grand Cru Red Bordeaux Blend
Drank 10/9/19
Classic right bank nose opens with plums, earth, some cassis, and just a hint of cedar. Velvety black fruit leather, and a touch of green from the cab franc, with medium, well integrated tannins lend support to the medium+ body. A well made wine from a good producer, in an average vintage.
4/21/8/4/4+50=91 pts.

Slate minerality, black fruit, black pepper, smoked meat, pepperoni. Salty with strong tannins, long finish and luscious mouthfeel.
