Chateau Corbin, 2007

AOC: Grand Cru Classe, Saint-Emilion, Bordeaux
Variety: Merlot, Cabernet Franc




Color: half amber and half violet, can cellar more time 
Aroma: quite intense red fruit, clear toasted oak (positive), quite elegant.  
Palate: slightly smooth, clear acidity (flavor like decayed cork, but acceptable, not corked), red fruit sweetness was there, medium body, acidity smoothed out after decanting, Merlot red fruit came out (very good Intensity at some point), very fine tannin, Corbin is one of my favorite right bank Bordeaux, must try 2009 again.
