Bordeaux Total René Gabriel:

80 % Merlot, 19 % Cabernet Franc, 1 % Cabernet Sauvignon. 42 hl/h. Sattes Purpur-Granat, dicht in der Mitte, lila Schimmer aussen. Der erste Nasenansatz hinterlässt deutlich florale Eindrücke, dahinter Pflaumen, Holunder und Heidelbeeren und eine schwarze Pfefferwürze aufweisend. Wunderbar anschmiegsamer Gaumen, verloursartige Textur, im Innern mit feiner Rasse im Extrakt. Bei längerem Gaumenkontakt zeigt er dann doch noch eine verlangende und potentialbietende Adstringenz. Das Finale ist fast nur noch schwarzbeerig. Ein grosser, möglicherweise bald einmal legendärer Vieux Château Certan. Die 14.6 Volumen gelten für einen VCC schon eher als Ausnahmefall. Trinkreife 2024-2055. Bewertung 19/20. -René Gabriel-

Robert Parker Wine Advocate:

Blended of 80% Merlot, 19% Cabernet Franc and 1% Cabernet Sauvignon, the medium to deep garnet-purple colored 2015 Vieux Chateau Certan opens with profound notes of blueberry compote, dried mulberries, black forest cake, licorice, violets and garrigue with wafts of black truffles, sandalwood and rose hips. Medium to full-bodied, very earthy/savory and beautifully layered with very plush yet present tannins, it offers lovely freshness and a very long minerally finish. So very Pomerol! Drink Date 2020-2050. Rating 98+/100. -Lisa Perrotti-Brown-

Vinous:

The 2015 Vieux Château Certan is every bit as magnificent from bottle as it was from barrel. Rich, sumptuous and explosive in the glass, the 2015 is pure class. The flavors are deep and boldly sketched in this sumptuous, spectacularly ripe Pomerol. Inky blue/purplish fruit, spice, lavender, licorice and menthol all develop in the glass, but it is the wine's textural richness and intensity that stand out most. As good as the 2015 is today, it is going to need at least 15-20 years to be at its very best. Is there anything more I can ask of the 2015? No, there is not. This is a tremendous showing. Drink Date 2030-2065. Rating 100/100. -Antonio Galloni-

Winespectator:

Expressive and alluring aromas of warm plum reduction and boysenberry puree lead off here, followed by fleshy, seamlessly layered notes of blackberry, black currant, melted black licorice and smoldering tobacco. Shows a lovely tug of dark earth through the finish without sacrificing a sense of polish or giving ground to the waves of fruit. Displays terrific latent energy through the finish. Drink Date 2023-2040. Rating 97/100. -JM-

Jancis Robinson:

Tasted blind. Not especially aromatic but there’s a lot underneath. Serious stuff with great richness but great structure too. Hint of mint. Drink Date 2024-2042. Rating 17.5/20. -Jancis Robinson-
