Corbin Deep colored, mineral driven, licorice, jammy berry, spice and sweet black cherry open to a rich, plush, round, deep wine. This is a big step up for Annabelle Cruse. It?s the best Corbin I have ever tasted. winecellarinsider.com
Jeff Leve, The Wine Cellar Insider Score: 91-93/100
Lush, concentrated black currant and kirsch-like fruit, a hint of licorice and some floral notes and subtle background oak jump from the glass of this blend of 80% Merlot and 20% Cabernet Franc. It is another relatively large-scaled St.-Emilion at 15% natural alcohol, but the good news is that there are nearly 4,500 cases of this wine in the marketplace. The purity, sumptuous texture and seductive nature of this wine will endear it to most readers. Its is certainly a sleeper of the vintage, as Corbin has rarely made a wine of this intensity and richness, at least not in many a year. Drink it over the next 15+ years.||This 2010 is a spectacular wine from Annabelle Cruse-Bardinet from her 33-acre vineyard in the lieu-dit of Corbin (hence the name of the chateau). Wine Advocate.February, 2013
Robert Parker Score: 92/100
This is a balanced supple wine with ripe tannins and vibrant plum and blackberry flavours. There is a refreshing character to this wine with good length but it is not that complex. Drink fairly young. asianpalate.com
