Château Corbin is one of the oldest estates in Saint Emilion. The foundations of the Château date back to the 15th century, and according to legend, Corbin was the centre of a fiefdom belonging to the Black Prince. Since 1999, the estate has been run by Anabelle Cruse-Bardinet, an oenologist with a degree from the University of Bordeaux, who represents the fourth generation. Divin de Corbin is the second wine of Château Corbin.
