Score 95/100 · Drink 1982-2035, William Kelley, Wine Advocate, Aug 2022

A wine that illustrates the heights of which this property is capable, as well as the greatness of this low-yielding vintage, the 1961 Grand Corbin-Despagne offers up a deep bouquet of crème de cassis, black truffles, loamy soil, forest floor and cigar smoke, followed by a full-bodied, layered and impressively concentrated palate that's deep, dynamic and penetrating. It's a magical bottle of wine.
