The foundations of the Chateau date back to the 15th century, and according to legend, Corbin was the focal point of a stronghold that belonged to the Black Prince.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBuilt in the middle of the 19th century, Corbin was purchased in 1924 by the great-grandparents of the current owners.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSince 1999, the estate is managed by Anabelle Cruse-Bardinet, a Bordeaux University enology graduate, who represents the 4th generation of the family.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWinemaker Notes\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eProfessional Ratings\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e94James Suckling\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBlueberries and blackberries with smoke and tar undertones. Mushrooms. Full-bodied with layers of ripe tannins and a juicy and fruity finish. Plenty going on with real St.-Emilion character.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e94Vinous\u003cbr\u003e\nThe 2020 Corbin is a very elegant, precise wine. Silky, beautifully perfumed and light on its feet, it impresses with its purity and guile. The Corbin is not an obvious Saint-Émilion; rather, it is a wine that is all finesse. Crushed berry fruit, spice, mint, blood orange and cedar are all laced together. This is such a classy, polished wine. -Antonio Galloni\u003cbr\u003e\nBarrel Sample: 92-94\u003cbr\u003e\n93Decanter\u003cbr\u003e\nEnjoyably sleek, plenty of freshness and clarity of fruit. A little tight through the mid palate that pauses the momentum, but this will fill out over ageing, and offers a ton of potential for future pleasure. Jean Luc Thunevin has been consultant for the past three years, but in global strategy rather than winemaking - all winemaking decisions are made by Annabelle Corbin and her cellar master Nicolas Fabre. A yield of 44hl\/ha, 77% of production went into the first wine. Aged in a mix of barrels and glass wine globes. Harvest September 8 to 19.\u003cbr\u003e\nBarrel Sample: 93\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Chateau Grand Corbin","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44520000225504,"sku":"120464","price":40.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0649\/9713\/0464\/products\/chateau-grand-corbin-saint-emilion-grand-cru-grand-cru-classe_1.jpg?v=1703278033","url":"https:\/\/www.mywineconnection.com\/products\/chateau-grand-corbin-saint-emilion-grand-cru-grand-cru-classe-2020-750ml","provider":"My Wine Connection","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
