Château Grand Corbin Despagne – Saint-Emilion Grand Cru, Grand Cru Classé

The nose is well-built, it offers delicacy in its aromatic concentration, complexity and a delicate, gourmand texture and relief. It reveals notes of boysenberry, wild raspberry, and small notes of small red fruits flirting with roast-elegant, associated with touches of pulpy blue plum, as well as a hint of violet, star anise, a hint of sweet tobacco, and a subtle touch of Madagascar pepper and toastiness. The palate is well-built, juicy, supple, it offers gourmandise, honeyed flavors and lovely definition. It presents a tangy frame, energy, purity, brilliance, roundness, relief and a lovely mid-palate. On the palate, this wine expresses notes of pulpy/juicy blackberry, brilliant cassis and small notes of brilliant cherry, combined with touches of cornflower, blue plum, as well as hints of maceron, toast, cardamom and a hint of clove. Good length. The tannins are mellow, sapid and gourmand. Fine chewiness in the background. A wine offering gourmandise, purity and brilliance. A great success !
