The estate has been in the Cruse family since 1924 and has been a Grand Cru Classé since the initial classification in 1955. It is currently overseen by Annabelle Cruse-Bardinet – the fourth generation of Cruses at the property. Château Corbin's vineyards cover 13 hectares (32 acres) close to appellation border with Pomerol – the likes of Pétrus and La Conseillante lie only two kilometers (1.2 miles) to the west. Saint-Emilion's iconic Château Cheval-Blanc is a similar distance southwest. The vineyards are predominantly planted to Merlot (80 percent) with the remainder given over to its classic appellation stablemate, Cabernet Franc. The vineyard straddles two broad soil types: sandy gravels surrounding the cha^teau on top of iron-rich red clays; with deeper clays towards the Pomerol end of the estate. The estate produces three wines: the Château Corbin grand vin and the second wines, Divin de Corbin and XX de Corbin. Unusually for the appellation, the second wines are not labelled Saint-Emilion Grand Cru (as is want to occur with Grand Cru Classé properties), with Cruse-Bardinet opting instead to release them under the broader Saint-Emilion title. The wines are fermented in concrete vats before being aged in French oak barriques for around 18 months in the case of the grand vin. The second wines are generally released a year after harvest. The estate is one of the oldest in the appellation although the original, and sizeable, Corbin holding is now considerably fragmented – as evidenced by the likes of Château Corbin Michotte, Grand Corbin-Despagne and Grand Corbin Manuel – all neighbors. The Cruse name is well known in Bordeaux circles and Annabelle's cousin, Emmanuel Cruse, heads up the Margaux third grown Château d'Issan estate in the Médoc.\u003cbr\u003e","published_at":"2024-03-20T13:58:56-04:00","created_at":"2024-03-18T19:38:58-04:00","vendor":"CaskCartel.com","type":"Wine","tags":["Country_France","NK180324","Other_Wine","Producer_Château Corbin","Region_Saint-Emilion","Source_VendorEmail0324","Type_Red Wine","Varietal_Bordeaux Blend Red"],"price":211700,"price_min":211700,"price_max":211700,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":44510482825354,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":null,"requires_shipping":true,"taxable":false,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"1993 | Château Corbin | Saint-Emilion Grand Cru","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":211700,"weight":12247,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":null,"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[],"quantity_rule":{"min":1,"max":null,"increment":1}}],"images":["\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/16_06f79513-17d4-4205-9098-cd77917bd637.png?v=1710805171"],"featured_image":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/16_06f79513-17d4-4205-9098-cd77917bd637.png?v=1710805171","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":"1993 | Château Corbin | Saint-Emilion Grand Cru at CaskCartel.com","id":26510511210634,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.265,"height":600,"width":159,"src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/16_06f79513-17d4-4205-9098-cd77917bd637.png?v=1710805171"},"aspect_ratio":0.265,"height":600,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/16_06f79513-17d4-4205-9098-cd77917bd637.png?v=1710805171","width":159}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003ch2\u003eRed Wine: 1993 | Château Corbin | Saint-Emilion Grand Cru\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt presents itself with great elegance and charm with precise aromas, imposing but very fine tannins and great length.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOrder from the Largest \u0026amp; Most Trusted Premium Spirits Marketplace! \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeatured in\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eROLLING STONE\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMEN'S JOURNAL\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUS WEEKLY\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNOTICE:\u003c\/strong\u003e Many other small liquor store sites may end up cancelling your order due to the high demand, unavailability or inaccurate inventory counts.  We have partnerships consisting of a large network of licensed retailers from within the United States, Europe and across the world ensuring orders are fulfilled.   \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eProducer:\u003c\/b\u003e Château Corbin\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eVintage\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1993\u003cb\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 750ml\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eABV:\u003c\/strong\u003e 14.5%\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVarietal:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Bordeaux Blend Red\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCountry\/Region:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e France, Saint-Emilion\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c!-- split --\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eDetailed Description\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt presents itself with great elegance and charm with precise aromas, imposing but very fine tannins and great length.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eProducer Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\nChâteau Corbin is a Saint-Emilion Grand Cru Classé estate four kilometers (2.5 miles) northwest of Saint-Emilion town.
