Château Grand Corbin - Saint-Émilion Grand Cru - Red - 2019 :

 

The Distinguished Saint-Émilion Grand Cru Classé

Château Grand Corbin is a highly sought-after Grand Cru Classé from the prestigious Saint-Émilion appellation. Situated on the Right Bank, its terroir of blue clay and silica is perfectly suited to the dominant Merlot (80%) grape, ensuring both depth of flavour and a structure built for the cellar. This is a truly rewarding claret.

The Sommelier's Assessment

Expect a wine of deep garnet hue, evolving beautifully with age. The structure is unmistakably Grand Cru Classé.

• Aroma: The bouquet is classic Bordeaux, offering ripe blackcurrant and plum jam, mingling with sophisticated notes of new leather, cigar box, and a touch of mocha from careful oak maturation.
• Taste: Exhibits a suave, velvety texture. The tannins are firm but beautifully integrated, providing a dense, concentrated mouthfeel. The wine’s elegance shines through its rich flavour profile.
• Cellaring: Built to last, this wine will continue to soften and develop complex tertiary notes over the next 10-20 years.

Food Matching & Serving Advice

For best enjoyment, serve slightly below room temperature (16-18°C). A touch of air will benefit all but the oldest vintages. A magnificent choice for a grand dinner.
