Ch&acirc;teau Amp&eacute;lia
&amp;#8212;&amp;#8212;&amp;#8212;
Ch&acirc;teau Grand Corbin-Despagne manages five hectares of Ch&acirc;teau Amp&eacute;lia in the AOC (appellation)&nbsp;Castillon C&ocirc;tes de Bordeaux. &nbsp;Made of 95% Merlot and 5% Cabernet Franc,&nbsp;Amp&eacute;lia is made in individual batches for each vineyard plot and matured in oak barrels. The terroir differs from top to bottom: in the hilltops, there is clay and limestone, while at the slopes, there is sandy gravel. In the valleys, you&amp;#8217;ll find clay and silt. You&amp;#8217;ll sense an already opened bouquet that expresses red berries, citrus fruits. Also, you&amp;#8217;ll pick up a delicate wood scent as well as ripe and silky tannins. Altogether, these flavors create an &amp;#8220;ample flesh, a touch of welcome freshness that is accompanied with softer notes of toffee.&amp;#8221;
