2005 Château Grand Corbin-Despagne, St-Emilion Grand Cru
Alive with cedar, black cherry and cassis, this Château Grand Corbin-Despagne is at the very peak of its powers. Offering a thrilling, high toned expression of the outstanding 2005 vintage, it delivers creme de cassis, blueberry and morello flavours, whilst the wine's initially firm backbone has softened to reveal outstanding balance and finesse. Outstanding.
