The 2019 Château Corbin is a complex, medium to full-bodied effort with the spicy red and black fruit character of the vintage as well as notes of dried flowers, Asian spice, chocolate, and lead pencil. Wonderfully balanced, with ripe yet present tannins, a good sense of freshness, and a great finish, it's going to drink nicely for 15-20 years.

The 2019 Corbin has come together beautifully with élevage. Succulent black cherry, plum, chocolate, new leather and licorice all flesh out, giving this succulent Saint-Émilion tons of energy and sheer appeal. Attractive floral and savory accents linger on the close.

Features a core of cassis and plum compote that's rich and caressing in feel, while red licorice and singed apple wood notes are inlaid nicely throughout. Solid, if a touch shy on purity in the end. Merlot and Cabernet Franc. Drink now through 2032. Tasted twice, with consistent notes. 4,500 cases made, 450 cases imported.
