Refined and aromatic, with blackberry, plum, violet and subtle spice layered over a silky, concentrated palate. Fresh acidity and finely polished tannins bring remarkable balance and precision, leading to a long, complex finish.
Food Pairing: Pair with roast lamb, beef tenderloin, duck, braised short ribs, truffle dishes, mushrooms, or mature cheeses.
97 Points - James Suckling
This wine is graceful and delicate, with a clarity and beauty showing aromas of mushrooms, bark, forest floor and violets. Cherries and raspberries, too. Medium-bodied with silky, ultra-fine tannins, it runs long and true. Very crunchy and full of acid tension, this has historical character but is still modern and brilliant.
96 Points - Wine Enthusiast
A beautifully dense wine blending Merlot and 23% of both Cabernets, with black spice and cedar aromas. There is a straight line of acidity and tight spice followed by pure black-currant flavors.
95 Points - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The 2021 Vieux Château Certan has turned out beautifully in bottle, unfurling in the glass with aromas of dark berries, cigar wrapper, black truffle, burning embers, mint and rose petals. Medium to full-bodied, deep and layered, with impressive density, beautifully refined tannins and a long, gently vanillin-inflected finish, it's a blend of 77% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Franc and 3% Cabernet Sauvignon, the latter imparting complexity and structure.
