Château Corbin Michotte Grand Cru Classé 2003
The wine
Corbin Michotte has a dense colour with glints of purple. It has a powerful bouquet of ripe fruit and liquorice with toasted notes. On the palate it is generous and well-rounded. A great Saint-Emilion wine at reasonable prices.
About the Producer Château Corbin Michotte
The Château Corbin Michotte is located in the Corbin area on the border of Pomerol. The chateau was classified without interruption from 1955 to 2012, when it was stripped off its title following a big controversy. The 7-hectare cru has a superb sandy-silt soil on sandy-clay, which is Merlot’s favourite soil. Amateurs have always remained loyal to the property which has always made elegant wines away from the fashion effects.
