Château Corbin 2024

Radiant raspberry fruit with accompanying floral and citrus notes; soft attack on the palate, sweet, juicy fruit, very fine-grained tannins wrap around the fruit, everything is in its place here, nothing dominates, and the length is impressive. A charming Saint-Émilion with plenty of finesse.

Medium-bodied, fragrant, and fresh, the wine delivers its message of sweet, ripe, bright red cherries, currants, and soft, elegant textures easily. You can enjoy this with pleasure on release. The wine blends 95% Merlot with 5% Cabernet Franc. Drink from 2028-2038. 90-92 pts

On the palate, the texture is meltingly smooth, floating in the mouth with a feather-light feel. The profile is both elegant and playful, driven by lively freshness and tangy fruit.

Another success in a hugely difficult vintage, it has high energy, good structure, enticing fruit, a lovely finish and surprising richness for the year. Yields were very low and the densimetric sorting was essential. It was aged in a mix of oak barrels, concrete tanks, and wine globs. So silky and delicate, all in the new style of harmony and pleasure.

This is a success in the vintage. Well constructed, carefully extracted, good depth of blueberry and blackberry fruit, measured if perceptible oak character, enjoyable with sleek tannins, fresh acidities of the vintage well mastered. Anabelle Cruse Bardinet owner, Oenoteam consultants.

From vines grown on clay-limestone soils, Corbin 2024 stands out with chalky nuances, notes of red berries, and a touch of fresh oak. The silky texture of its tannins highlights the finesse and precision that have been achieved in this wine. An elegant, refreshing Corbin. A great success.

Dark, intense color with garnet highlights. A very aromatic, refined nose, fruity, ripe and subtle. The palate stands out for its airy texture and abundant aromas. For now, the wine is protected by CO2; you will need to wait until aging is complete.
