Grand Corbin Despagne 1989

€60.00 inc-VAT per bottle
€50.00 ex-VAT

The Domaine Grand Corbin Despagne produces 3 cuvées of red wines: The first wine "the Fine Wine of Grand Corbin Despagne", the second wine "Petit Corbin Despagne" and a last one named "Château Laporte". The Fine Wine is powerful and full-bodied, with notes of plum, blackberry and liquorice on a fairly dense palate. It can be enjoyed after 6 to 15 years but can age even longer in great vintages. The quality of this wine has remarkably improved since the late 1990s. The "Petit Corbin Despagne" (70% merlot, 30% cabernet franc), vinified from 10 to 20-year-old vines, offers immediate pleasure through its fruitiness and supple tannins, and is very popular with restaurateurs. It should be consumed within 3 to 7 years. Finally, Château Laporte is made from the youngest vines of the estate. The greatest vintages are as follows: 2015, 2014, 2010, 2009, 2008, 2005, 2001, 2000 and 1998. Lovers of full-bodied and powerful wines will want to acquire a few bottles since the quality-to-price ratio is excellent and not at all speculative, even for the very best vintages, which is uncommon in Bordeaux.
