SKU: AWS417412

Vieux Château Certan stands as a timeless icon of Bordeaux's winemaking tradition, nestled in the revered Pomerol appellation. With a heritage dating back to the late 18th century, this historic estate embodies the epitome of elegance, craftsmanship, and terroir expression. Situated on the renowned clay and gravel soils of Pomerol, Vieux Château Certan's vineyards yield grapes of exceptional quality, reflecting the unique characteristics of the region. Revered for its unwavering commitment to excellence, the estate produces wines celebrated for their finesse, complexity, and age-worthiness. As a beacon of Pomerol's esteemed winemaking heritage, Vieux Château Certan continues to captivate enthusiasts worldwide with its distinguished wines, each bottle a testament to centuries of tradition and dedication.

Possibly the wine of the vintage, the 2017 Vieux Chateau Certan is a blend of 81% Merlot, 14% Cabernet Franc and 5% Cabernet Sauvignon from the highest point on the Pomerol plateau. Deep purple, with a heavenly bouquet of creme de cassis, blueberries, scorched earth, crushed violets, tobacco, and earth, this beauty is full-bodied, has incredible depth of fruit, ripe, present tannins, integrated acidity, and a great finish. This estate has been on fire of late, and this is undoubtedly a worthy follow-on to the otherworldly 2015 and 2016. It has the depth of fruit and texture to offer pleasure even today, yet a solid 7-8 years of cellaring are warranted, and it should be long-lived.
