Château Corbin

Country: France

Now owned and managed by the energetic Jacques Rambeaud, this small 23 ha estate was once part of the 480 ha estate of Grand Corbin before the turbulent years of the French Revolution. Situated on a low clay and limestone dominated hill, with Petrus off to one side and Cheval Blanc also visible over the trees ( slightly left of the Church of Pomerol ), this great boutique estate makes some of the most structured and profoundly attractive Montagne St Emilion wines. Jacques has a unique view on his wines, making silky fruit and sensuous tannins the centre-piece, with a lovely freshness that elevates the wines and adds purity and balance. Oak is deftly used, with more used oak ageing now employed to minimize the oak character overpowering the fruit.
