Sweet blackcurrants tobacco dark chocolate and black truffle. Great nose just so much going on. Gorgeous intensity of flavour on the palate round and juicy black fruits mostly with very softly spiced tannins that support the fruit and give structure and weight. Lively acidity gives bounce and freshness and there is a cooling liquorice touch to the finish. Well made and well finished. Everything feels in balance and harmonious. Clear power but well presented. Could almost drink this now but I would hold for a few years as this will age well. - Georgina Hindle

Ripe Bing cherries mulberries spicy oak new leather and candied violet notes all emerge from the 2019 Château Grand Corbin a rich medium to full-bodied Merlot-dominated Saint-Emilion that has the vintage?s pure balanced classic style. It shows more minerality and truffly herbal notes as it sits in the glass and is a beautiful example of the balance and finesse coming from Saint-Emilion these days.

This has aromas of blueberries currants pine cones oyster shells and nutmeg. It?s medium-bodied with firm tightly wound tannins. Tight mineral finish. Fresh. Better in 2024.

Raspberry leaf aromatics this has delicacy and a sense of momentum through the palate. As with so many of these wines it was less generous than 2018 En Primeur and that is still the case today but it has so much potential for enjoyment. From clay sand and gravel giving generosity and freshness.
