Robert Parker Wine Advocate
Blended of 89% Merlot and 11% Cabernet Franc aged in 50% new French oak for 18 months, the medium to deep garnet-purple colored 2016 Corbin has quite a meaty nose with smoked meats and beef drippings over a core of black plum preserves with hints of bay leaves and garrigue. The palate is medium to full-bodied, firm and grainy with a great core of muscular fruit and an earthy finish.
Andreas Larsson - Tasted
Pure nose, lightly smoky and toasted with mocha, wild berries, fine spices. Good density and weight, ripe tannin, fine oak and a dense and lingering finish.
VertdeVin
The nose is aromatic, elegant, frank and offers a good precision as well as a good purity of the fruit. It reveals notes of blackberries, crushed cassis and small notes of crushed raspberry, crushed red berries, vanilla associated with slight touches of violet, blueberry, liquorice and very discreet toasted hints, lilacs, sweet spices and cardamom. The palate is fruity, well-balanced and offers a beautiful definition, a silky texture, gourmandise, a mineral frame, a fine acidulous sensation as well as a beautiful grain and a beautiful precision / purity. On the palate this wine expresses notes of blackberry, ripe / crushed wild raspberry and small notes of crushed cassis associated with fine touches of strawberry, blueberry, violet, sweet spices and an imperceptible hint of zan. Tannins are fine, elegant and very slightly grainy. Good length. A beautiful grain on the finish. A beautiful wine!

87% percent Merlot & 13% Cabernet Franc
Tasting note
'A blend of 87% percent Merlot and 13% Cabernet Franc, the wine is considered one of the best from the sector of St.-Emilion called Corbin. It was cropped at 28 hectoliters per hectare and produced from hand-harvested fruit starting on September 28 and finishing October 8. The wine has an attractive deep purple color, a sweet nose of raspberry fruit intermixed with red and black currants, loamy soil undertones and a bit of tobacco leaf. It is medium-bodied, spicy, not terribly deep, but elegant and well-balanced. Moreover, the tannins are sweet and there is enough acidity to provide delineation to its component parts. Drink it over the next 7-8 years.'
