Chateau Corbin Grand Cru Saint-Emilion Grand Cru Classe 2020

92-93/100 James Suckling / Decanter

Château Corbin 2020 is a refined and beautifully structured Grand Cru Classé from one of Saint-Émilion’s oldest estates, located near the Pomerol border. Dominated by Merlot with a touch of Cabernet Franc, this vintage opens with expressive aromas of black cherry, raspberry, violet, and subtle hints of spice and cocoa. The palate is elegant and focused, with fine tannins, bright acidity, and a mineral edge that reflects the property's clay-limestone terroir. Aged in French oak, the 2020 vintage is both generous and precise—an excellent choice for aging or pairing with roasted meats, duck, or earthy vegetable dishes.
