Vinous - Neal Martin (91)The 2018 Grand Corbin has a lush, candied bouquet of black cherries and crème de cassis, all very seductive, but the vanilla-y oak seems nicely enmeshed. The palate is medium-bodied with firm tannins that lend a little more structure than I expected when I tasted from barrel. Salted licorice mingles with truffle toward the finish, which feels reassuringly long. Enjoy this over the next 12–15 years. |

Jane Anson Inside Bordeaux (94)Well-judged balance of power and finesse, an excellent vintage at Grand Corbin Despagne with gourmet black cherry notes, black pepper and olive tapenade spices, and a kiss of black chocolate to add generosity. Love this, an upscore from En Primeur. The Corbin sector on the clays near to Pomerol did a great job of resisting the periods of drought in 2019. A yield of 36hl/ha. 50% new oak. The 208th vintage of the Despagne family here, 24th for François Despagne. |
