This was just great from the barrel and it is even better now that it is bottled. The wine is lush, round, deep, rich and complex. There is depth, freshness and complexity that shines through with all of its layers of deep, red fruits, black cherries, plums, cocoa and wet earth. This is already showing well, but with a few years in the cellar, it is going to be even better. This is the finest vintage of Grand Corbin-Despagne ever produced. Drink from 2024-2036.

PnP - still young obviously but already approachable, with a juicy mouth feel and refined tannins. Promising and very good value for money.

In the bouquet and on the palate beautiful dark and red berries as well as some green bell pepper. Juicy acidity and tannin. Try again around 2029.
