Chateau Grand Corbin-Despagne Saint-Emilion Grand Cru Classe 2005
Château Grand Corbin-Despagne 2005 is a Saint-Emilion Grand Cru Classé wine, made from the Merlot grape varieties for 75%, Cabernet-Franc for 24% and Cabernet-Sauvignon for 1%.
After 20 years of ageing, it offers all the qualities of a great mature Saint-Emilion: a powerful nose of ripe black fruits, spices, leather and blond tobacco. On the palate, the substance remains powerful and fresh. It is a wine that can be enjoyed as an accompaniment to red meats and game, and that can be kept in the cellar for a few more years, until around 2030.
