Chateau Corbin is one of the oldest estates in St. Emilion, dating all the way back to the 15th century. More recently, bringing Chateau Corbin into the modern era, in 1924, Chateau Corbin was purchased by the Great Grandparents of the current owners, the Cruse family. The beautiful chateau was constructed in the 1800’s. During the late 1990’s, Anabelle Cruse and her sisters purchased the shares of Chateau Corbin from the other family shareholders and took over complete ownership of the estate.
Anyway, more importantly, what does it tate like and is it worth the money? We always bleieve that one of the great things about wine is that beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but we're pretty safe in saying that this is a stand-out example of exactly what Bordeaux is supposed to taste like. Extremely smooth and from what is now known as one of the best vintages ever, this is one for thinking up a special occasion just to open it.

Wine has been in the blood of the Petit family since the eighteenth century but they did not buy this particular Château until 1998. Situated in the commune of Néac, what makes this property so special is the south-west facing, clay/gravel slope on which it sits, just across the Barbanne valley from its near neighbour Pétrus. These conditions are perfect for the ripening of Merlot and Cabernet Franc

Château Lamothe-Cissac 2017
Regular price £25.80A classic deep red with a balanced oak and fruit taste.
A wonderfully traditional Bordeaux that has all the reassurance you’d expect from the Haut-Médoc. Cabernet Sauvignon dominant, from the estates 33 hectares
in Cissac, it exhibits lifted dark cherry, cassis and secondary oak aromas, with a little leather and spice evolution. Harmonious, with perfectly poised tannins, the
wine is drinking well now but will develop further in bottle

The majority of the production is carried out by hand with as little human intervention as possible. The small vineyard plots are planted with Merlot, and Cabernet Franc predominates where you find sandy topsoil with clay subsoil. They work in harmony here like a quality male and female duet, think Marvin Gaye and Tammi Terrell, not some glorified karaoke singers off the X-Factor!
