A wine steeped in Franco-English history
Château Corbin Michotte is part of a history where French and English culture intertwine. This vast estate is relatively close to Cheval Blanc and Figeac. It is also close to Pomerol and Petrus. The estate is cradled by homogeneous winds and fed by gravelly-sandy croups derived from the quaternary Isle water table. The terrain is ideal for the natural aeration and expansion of vineyards.
