Smaak omschrijving

Notes of truffle, licorice, black plum and rain-soaked earth creating the perfume, this is clearly, the richest, silkiest wine evermade at Corbin. The plush mouth feel has an unmistakable presence of ripe, fresh fruits, purity and length with a touch of clay and minerals in the finish

Vinificatie

Since 2016, Corbin’s grapes have been vinified in a new high-performing, innovative vat room in temperature-controlled concrete vats.This room houses 18 small 50-hectolitre capacity vinification vats, each one of which corresponds to a particular plot of vines.While unequivocally modern, the vat room blends seamlessly and subtly into Corbin’s previous cellar building. The soul of the place has been preserved. Technology and elegance cohabit in perfect harmony.
