Château Grand Corbin-Despagne, Grand Cru Classé

We had a wonderful tour and tasting earlier today. We have spent almost a week in Bordeaux and visited several chateaux in the Medoc, Entre-du-Mers, and Saint Emilion regions, and this was our favorite. The tour started in the vineyard, with a lot of detail on the vines, terroir, and growing process. We then moved into the vat room and the cellar, and had a very engaging presentation of the winemaking process. The tour finished with a tasting of the first and second wines. The first wine, Chateau Grand Corbin-Despagne, was one of the best we have tried so far. We were thrilled to learn that the wine was distributed to our area of the US in Wegmans, and are looking forward to buying a case to progressively taste it over the years as it ages. We visited while bottling was ongoing and it was very interesting to see the workings of the winery while we visited. Overall, this was a phenomenal tour that we would highly recommend!
