Vineyard

The vineyards of Château Grand Corbin-Despagne are located in the north of Saint-Emilion, close to Pomerol. They own just under 29 hectares of plots planted with 6,000 to 8,000 vines per hectare. The average age of the vines is 15 years, yielding 42 hl per hectare. Green harvesting is practiced. The soil consists of calcareous sand on a sublayer of iron oxide and old sand mixed with clay. The estate has held organic farming certification since 2013, meaning no herbicides are used.

Vinification

The organically grown grapes are hand-picked and transported in small boxes to the domain, where they undergo a very strict and multi-stage selection process. Fermentation takes place at 28 °C. During vinification, the pigeage technique is applied and the juice is regularly pumped over. The wine matures for 20 months in oak barrels, half of which are new and the other half are second-fill barrels.
