Château Grand Corbin Despagne

Located on Rive droite of Bordeaux, Château Grand Corbin-Despagne is loaded with history. The first written records of Famille DESPAGNE date back to 1665, but it was not until the end of the 18th century that the first vineyards appeared on this land called Grand Corbin and adjoining Saint-Emilion. Today, François Despagne represents the 7th generation at the head of Château, working to put all his heart and passion to produce a great wine. Certified in Organic Agriculture since 2013, Domaine is currently in conversion to Biodynamic Agriculture.

The Château Grand Corbin-Despagne was promoted to Grand Cru Classé during the 2006 edition of the Saint-Emilion classification.

The Château Grand Corbin-Despagne watches over a 29-hectare vineyard planted on clay-siliceous soils with a presence of iron dross. The grape varieties are 75% Merlot, 24% Cabernet Franc and 1% Cabernet Sauvignon. The wines are aged for 12 to 18 months in French oak barrels, 50% of which are new, as well as in amphorae for about 10% of the production.

Description Grand Corbin Despagne 2021.

Intense, deep ruby in color, the nose reveals intense scents of fresh red fruits such as strawberry, raspberry, redcurrant and quetsche. After aeration, vanilla and woody notes mingle, the remnants of barrel ageing. The palate is supple and mellow, with a lovely freshness. The aromas of the nose are repeated on the finish. A fine persistence leaves a fruity flavor on the palate.

The care we take when receiving wines in our cellars enables us to detect bottles with imperfections (dirty or faded labels, damaged capsules, etc.). In such cases, they are systematically set aside and never put online! Our preparation team selects only bottles with perfect presentation for your orders!

It is these bottles with slight external defects that we present to you in the "Existe en imparfaite" selection. These bottles are, of course, of "irreproachable" gustatory quality, but suffer from slight defects on the label or cap. We therefore offer them at a preferential price, making the pleasure of tasting them even more affordable.
