Note di degustazione
Whether I landed on an off bottle or simply misunderstood the wine when I tasted it a few months ago is unclear, but what is certain is that I misjudged the 2019 Corbin. Offering up inviting aromas of plums, raspberries, violets, vine smoke and raw cocoa, it's medium to full-bodied, supple and enveloping, with velvety tannins, succulent acids and an elegant, complete profile. This beautiful wine includes some 15% Cabernet Franc.

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 retained that estuarine aspect on the nose, which is well-defined with lifted blackberry and raspberry fruit, the Cabernet Franc quite expressive. The polished palate features supple tannins, dark-chocolate-tinged red fruit, leather and white pepper, though it needs a little more delineation and freshness on the finish.
