ABOUT THIS PRODUCER
For the past ten years Philippe Durand has been making impressive investments and improvements at Chteau ROCHER CORBIN. Just northwest of the town of Montagne, the Chteau is perfectly situated on the western slope of the Calon mound at the highest point in the area of Montagne Saint-Emilion. The average age of the vines on the 10.5 hectares (25.95 acres) is 45 years. 15% of the vineyard has vines more than 80 years of age and there is one plot with impressive 140 year old vines.
The typical blend of Chteau ROCHER CORBIN is 90% Merlot, 8% Cabernet Sauvignon and 2% Cabernet Franc.
Chteau ROCHER CORBIN provides deep-colored and concentrated Montagne Saint-Emilion wines. The wine is well structured, full-bodied and viscous on the tongue, with a fleshy, fruity palate, rich aromas and fabulous aging potential for each vintage.
