  1. Chateau Corbin Saint Emilion Grand Cru Classé 2018

    Very pretty color of ruby with a wide reddish rim.

    Fruity nose of black currants, cooked plums, light cedar, licorice, light vanilla, tobacco, chocolates and light black pepper.

    Full-bodied with medium acidity and long legs.

    Dry and fruit forward on the palate with black currants, black plums, cherries, spices, chocolates, tobacco, herbs and light earth.

    Long finish with fine grained tannins and cherries.

    This is a delicious Merlot from Saint Emilion. Soft and elegant. Well balanced and rich. Spicy, and showing nice finesse.

    This 8 year old will continue to age nicely in the next 7 to 10 years. Has good potential to become a 94+ point wine.

    Fruit forward with nice complexity and a soft mouthfeel. A Merlot for the Cabernet Sauvignon lover.

    A great sipping wine, that will also pair nicely with food.

    A blend of 90% Merlot and 10% Cabernet Franc. Aged in (50% new) French Oak barrels for 18 months.

    15% alcohol by volume.

    92 points.

    $55.
