2019 Château Corbin St. Émilion Grand Cru

3/16/2024 - lim.calvinb wrote: 91 points

Drank from a 375. Decanted 2-3 hours.

Not bad but not blown away. Red fruits tobacco forest floor and chocolate nose. Mineral note is definitely there. On the palate a little disappointing, concentration of flavors is not there.

Good tannins and medium high acidity.

I was pleasantly surprised by this wine but suggest drinking at one sitting as it didn’t get better over the 3 days I drank.

Don't confuse with Corbin - Grand Cru Classe; doesn't really have any character or sense of place or distinguishing flavor. It tastes fine but bland. The Picadis I bought next day for $6.99 - also at Costco - was slightly better and priced correctly.

Elegant, fresh, and refined, the wine is vibrant, energetic, and almost crisp, with lift to the core of red fruits on mid-palate that carry through to the spice-tinted finish. Drink from 2024-2032.

Very tertiary, in need of a dish to be able to appreciate it. This short longevity is a bit disappointing for a St. Emilion.

Man, I'm telling you, these 2019s are beautiful. I know I keep saying this, but this is the best Corbin I've ever had. It has beautiful ripeness but nonetheless classy, nothing over the top. This is a lovely, serious wine. Very St. Emilion. Rating: 94 points.

Served vis-a-vis the Vieux Donjon, and not a crazy line up at alle given the cool character of VD, however, this looses out. In it self it is a very classic, vertical, cool, elegant wine, this is an Englishmans St. Emilæion and certainly not a fucking Merlot ... Will keep, but open for business

Can a wine smell warm? This one gave such an impression of radiating heat that I found myself feeling the glass to check the temperature of the wine. The aroma was almost visceral, like a fuzzy blanket that you wrap when you come in from a cold, wet walk. The flavor gives a different impression -- the wine is still in its angular youth, with high tannin and high acidity, lots of structure and not yet much fruit. Nevertheless, we happily drained the bottle, sediment and all, because the high-toned spiciness and red fruits went well with our steak and mushrooms. We'll leave our remaining bottles, though, for a few more years, until the taste is as warm as the smell.

Decanted one hour. Raven black color. Lots of chocolate, leather, tobacco, plums & cassis. Amazing QPR. Nice flavor layers, full mouthfeel. Only negative would be more one dimensional compared to top StE wines that cost much more. For the price nobody is going to be disappointed.

Meaty, almost yeasty notes over plummy black fruit, alcohol prickle and oaky spice. Juicy and fleshy, slightly grainy, coarse tannins, red and black fruits have a sweet core; the palate is better than the nose. S'okay.

Can’t trace buying this, but I need to go through receipts to find out where…

Medium body and balance belies posted 15% abv

Merlot dominant (I would have guessed 100%), smooth with refined finish. Tannins controlled, attractive acidity

Decanted two hours and drank over another hour. Dark black color. Harmonious Merlot & Cab Franc. My favorite combo. Chocolate Cake and smooth and harmonious. Only criticism is that it’s a bit lacking in fullness & complexity. Still an amazing QPR.

This is a nice example of a good St.Emilion in this top vintage on the right bank. The Château is located in the region close to Pomerol, with soils of sand, gravel and ferriginous clay. This wine, composed of 90% Merlot and 10% of Cabernet Franc,is more of a finesse-styled wine, by no means a flavor bomb like yesterday’s Gigondas. Medium Bordeaux color with a nose of tobacco and blackberries and a balanced taste of berries, ripe tannins with an adjusted acidity. This wine could eventually be stored for a couple of years but, to my tastei it is perfectly ready to drink.

Impulse purchase at Costco (suggested by their wine steward)
15.0% abv - $12

Served (aerated, 1/2 hr decant) with Stuffed Bell Peppers and Salad.

Dark ruby red on the pour, clear in the glass. Nice aroma of Dark red fruit, Cherry, Blackberry and Cassis carrying over to the palate along with notes of chocolate and earth. Medium-bodied with Moderate tannins providing some grip. Ample acidity for a Tart, pleasant, lingering finish. Nice reasonably priced Bordeaux. Spouse endorsed. I'd buy again.
