{"content":"<h3>The verdict</h3>
<p>This was certainly the most successful Corbières tasting I’ve ever done,’ opened Andrew Jefford. Despite not having high expectations, commenting that in the past ‘the outstanding wines have been intermittent rather than a regular feature’, he said: ‘Well under a quarter of the wines could be described as disappointing in some way or another, or even average, so it was a really exciting tasting.’</p>
<blockquote>
<p>‘I found these Corbières to be well balanced, with real energy and bite’ &#8211; Frederic Marti</p>

<p>Justin Howard-Sneyd MW agreed: ‘I feel we tasted some top-quality wines. We ended up with a group of seven wines that really stood out, and the three that we rated Outstanding (see below) were the ones that we all agreed were most worthy of that accolade.’ Frederic Marti was ‘surprised and impressed at the overall quality’, highlighting the ‘expressive, fruit-forward styles’ and overall ‘brightness’ of the wines.</p>

<p>‘I had the preconceived idea that the wines would be a bit alcoholic, a bit rich and warm on the palate,’ Marti said. But I found them to be well balanced and well managed, with real energy and bite.’ In terms of wine styles, Jefford said the Corbières region is ‘so big it’s hard to generalise’, though essentially it rises in the west, where wines benefit from the freshness brought by higher altitudes, while wines from the lower-lying vineyards in the east are broader and more opulently ripe.</p>
<p>The variation in style was also picked up by Marti, who highlighted the ‘duality’ of the tasting. ‘There was a noticeable difference in the old-school, richer, more flamboyant style of winemaking and the modern, lighter-touch, more refined styles,’ he said, though he added that ‘all the wines, even at the rich end, were still balanced and drinkable’.</p>
<div class="ad-container ad-container--mobile"><div id="post-inline-3" class="ipc-advert"></div></div>
<p>With respect to vintages, the judges were unanimous in their praise for the 2018s, lauding their ‘youthful, fruity expression’ and ‘immediate drinkability’. ‘I was expecting to find more from 2017 that were really exciting, but the 2018s were slightly overshadowing them,’ said Howard-Sneyd, while Jefford advocated to ‘drink them as young as possible’.</p>
<p>Marti also suggested to drink now; ‘For me, I’m really happy. I come from the area and sometimes it’s difficult to find wines that are so accessible, approachable and drinkable, which is something I was a bit concerned about. I thought there would be chewy tannins, high alcohol and wines that were hard to drink, but I found the complete opposite’.</p>
<div class="ad-container ad-container--mobile"><div id="post-inline-4" class="ipc-advert"></div></div>
<p>Value-wise, Howard-Sneyd said: ‘It’s not an expensive appellation, and a lot of Corbières can be found that are characterful and very affordable. Compared to Australian Shiraz or Argentinian Malbec, or any other big, individual style of red, I think you can get a lot more wine for your money.’</p>
<p>Howard-Sneyd continued: ‘Not every one’s a winner, but it’s a good appellation to look at for characterful, quality, interesting wines in that £10-£15 price bracket.’ It’s a region which ‘should appeal to people who are a bit more adventurous, who want to get off that beaten track and explore’, he added. ‘Even if there’s the occasional disappointment, there are some absolute heights to encourage you to keep on exploring.’</p>
<div class="ad-container ad-container--mobile"><div id="post-inline-5" class="ipc-advert"></div></div>
<p>If any further endorsement were needed to go out and buy these Corbières wines, Marti hinted that they may soon appear on the wine lists under his management at the five-star 45 Park Lane hotel in London: ‘I can’t wait to see the names and the prices, because I’d like to get some of these wines on my list now!’</p>

<h3>About Corbières</h3>
<p>This rugged Languedoc landscape is familiar by name to many wine lovers, but the sprawling nature of the region and its varied wine styles take time to understand. <em>Andrew Jefford reports&#8230;</em></p>
<p>Corbières is the Langueodc’s sphinx: enormous, haunting and enigmatic. I first went there more than 20 years ago and it seemed an excitingly wild, promising wine landscape: rugged, geologically and topographically chaotic, sparsely inhabited, full of savage allure. Every time I tasted a range of Corbières, I seemed to get a glimpse of that grandeur: unique, unbridled, now austere, now flamboyant. Just a glimpse.</p>
<p>I remember climbing up to the Cathar castle of Quéribus, high above a ridge dividing two valleys. The valley to your south is that of the Roussillon’s Agly: you can clearly see the town of Maury from the vastness. To the north is Languedoc: Corbières and the beautiful village of Cucugnan. Less than 10km separate the two. I tasted the local wines. They were shockingly different, given the geographical proximity. Why?</p>
<p>Corbières’ girth is a challenge. In terms of surface under vines, this Aude appellation is the giant of the Languedoc and the fourth largest appellation in France. It’s had its AP since 1985, but market progress has been slow. Prices are modest (the region recently vaunted the fact that some 46% of its red wine now sells for more than €5 a bottle). It’s hard to make great wine for modest prices. Good wine and great value, yes – but great wine demands effort and sacrifice which modest prices can never adequately reward.</p>

<h3 style="text-align: center">Corbières: Know your vintages</h3>
<p><strong>2018:</strong> A mild, wet spring was followed by a hot, dry and often windy summer, with cool nights in September. Most harvested a top-quality crop, but storms on 15 October damaged vineyards, particularly near Narbonne.</p>
<p><strong>2017:</strong> April frosts after a very mild late winter and early spring cut yields, but for those whose vineyards came through unscathed, quality was good.</p>
<p><strong>2016:</strong> The driest Languedoc summer since 1944 reduced the crop and led to some raisining, but higher vineyards fared well, with wines of freshness and poise.</p>
<p><strong>2015:</strong> After a cold winter and spring, summer was hot and dry, aided by August storms. A good vintage, though not as good as the three that followed.</p>
<p><strong>2014:</strong> A very dry spring was followed by hail in Corbières in July, and stormy conditions after that, with some September flooding. A difficult year.</p>
<p><strong>Older vintages:</strong> The high-quality wines of 2005 and 2010 are worth a look.</p>

<p>What, too, should be the model? Setting aside the cru appellation of Boutenac (which in some ways is a showcase for old-vine Carignan), the styles of the different sectors of Corbières are very different. Close to Narbonne and down towards Sigean along the coast, you can produce wines of flesh and voluptuousness. (Parts of Boutenac are the same.) The further you go towards the south and west, though, the higher the altitude; indeed the 200m that separate lower-lying Maury from higher-sited Cucugnan surely accounts for some of the stylistic difference I was first struck by.</p>
<p>When I wrote The New France back in 2002, there was a plan to create 11 crus rather than just one; that would have helped our understanding. It didn’t happen. There are rumours, though, that we will see a Corbières-Durban before long, and a Corbières-Villages appellation, too: welcome develo</p>

pments. It’s still there, anyway; still beautiful, still mysterious, still huge, still offering glimpses of grandeur (see the results of our tasting). Follow them up, and we may see more; and enjoy the value as you go.
