The 2018 Grand Corbin has a lush, candied bouquet of black cherries and crème de cassis, all very seductive, but the vanilla-y oak seems nicely enmeshed. The palate is medium-bodied with firm tannins that lend a little more structure than I expected when I tasted from barrel. Salted licorice mingles with truffle toward the finish, which feels reassuringly long. Enjoy this over the next 12–15 years.Inc. GSTSG$600.42 -

Well-judged balance of power and finesse, an excellent vintage at Grand Corbin Despagne with gourmet black cherry notes, black pepper and olive tapenade spices, and a kiss of black chocolate to add generosity. Love this, an upscore from En Primeur. The Corbin sector on the clays near to Pomerol did a great job of resisting the periods of drought in 2019. A yield of 36hl/ha. 50% new oak. The 208th vintage of the Despagne family here, 24th for François Despagne.Inc. GSTSG$536.15 -

A Merlot-heavy blend of 75% Merlot, 24% Cabernet Franc, and 1% Cabernet Sauvignon raised in equal parts concrete vat and stainless steel, the 2000 Château Grand Corbin-Despagne is drinking beautifully right now, with charming, opulent red and black fruits, truffly earth, leather, and spicy tobacco nuances on the nose. It's medium-bodied on the palate, with a textured, layered mouthfeel and outstanding length. Fully mature and at its peak today, it still has plenty of fruit as well as the firmer tannins of the vintage, so there's no reason it shouldn't keep for another decade. Drink 2026-2036.Inc.
