A great Red wine from Saint-Émilion bearing the signature Château Grand Corbin

The estate

Grand Cru de Saint-Émilion, Château Grand Corbin was founded in the 19th century. This great estate on the Right Bank of Bordeaux reconnects with its prestigious past. Managed by Philippe Dambrine, Château Grand Corbin ranks among the top crus of the appellation.

The vineyard

The vineyard of Château Grand Corbin covers 28.5 hectares of 40-year-old vines within the Saint-Émilion appellation. These vines are planted on a silica-rich terroir over a bed of blue clay.

Winemaking

After the hand harvest, which took place from September 15 to 29, the grapes are sorted after destemming. The grapes ferment in wooden or concrete vats. Finally, the wine is aged for 12 months in French oak barrels, 40% of which are new.

Blend

This Château Grand Corbin 2020 is the result of a blend of Merlot (80%), Cabernet Franc (15%) and Cabernet Sauvignon (5%).
