Tasting Notes

93
Vinous Neal Martin - 01 Mar 22
The 1995 Vieux Château Certan is a very capable wine that is now reaching its peak. The Cabernet Franc has always been the key component, imparting a lovely ferrous, undergrowth note on the nose that neatly counterbalances the intense red and black fruit laced with mint. The palate is ripe and generous with kirsch and red plum, quite saturated and maybe even "glossy". Maybe my one criticism is the toastiness of the oak on the finish that lends it a Rioja-like personality, but otherwise this is very fine. Taken from the Pomerol book authored by Neal Martin.

Pomerol Fine Wine

Pomerol

Pomerol, a prestigious Bordeaux Right Bank appellation, is famous for luxurious, velvety red wines primarily based on Merlot, often blended with Cabernet Franc. These wines are rich and opulent, with soft tannins and flavours of ripe plum, blackberry, truffle, chocolate, and earthy undertones, featuring a silky texture and lingering finish. Top producers include Château Pétrus, known for its depth and ageing potential; Château Le Pin, celebrated for purity and finesse; and Château La Conseillante and Château Trotanoy, known for elegance and power.
