Vieux Château Certan 1999

Pomerol

u. 1bn, excellent appearance

85% Merlot, 10% Cabernet Fran🎀c, 5% Cabernet Sauvignon. In 2013, a very spicy, strong dark chocolate, Merlot nose, with a touch of ginger and chilli, as in the great 'Artisan du Chocolat' blocks of delight. Some black truffle in the centre. Beautiful 'peacock tail' flavour on the palate. Explosive, showing better ripeness in Pomerol than on the Left Bank. A very fine, creamy mouthful.
