Another excellent St Emilion vintage after 2018, in most cases just as good as last year.
Limestone always does well in hot vintages with its ability to keep both moisture and freshness, but the Corbin sector on the clays near to Pomerol also did a great job of resisting the periods of drought in 2019.
