Wine Critics Notes:
Allen Meadows - Score: 91-93(2020 January)
Corbeaux is always better in warmer and drier vintages and 2018 suits the terroir perfectly. The overtly sauvage and liqueur-like aromas speak of red and black raspberry, poached plum and plenty of earth character. There is excellent volume and richness to the seductively textured medium weight plus flavors that coat the palate with dry extract while exhibiting very fine power, depth and persistence on the balanced though notably firm finish. This too is very good and worth your interest.
