Based on an 80/20 split of Merlot and Cabernet Franc, the 2009 Château Corbin sports a still youthful ruby/plum color to go with gorgeous aromas and flavors of red and black currants, spring flowers, green tobacco, white truffle, and some obvious mineral-like nuances. Upfront, beautifully textured, and elegant, this powerful yet pure, noble Saint-Emilion is going to continue drinking beautifully for at least another decade. Bravo!
