Vieux Château Certan 2010 (12 BT)

Vieux Château Certan 2010

Pomerol

Taiwan importer's back labels

86% Merlot, 8% Cabernet Franc, 6% Cabernet Sauvignon. The blend composition resembles the excellent 1998. 75% new barrels. Really sumptuous richness and a wine of enormous precision and the glycerol covers the very high tannin index. There is such extraordinary, creamy density in this wine. This is a very high Merlot content giving the plumpness but the tiny proportion of Cabernet Franc still comes singing through! Serena Sutcliffe, MW

WA 99

86%梅樂，8%卡本納弗朗，6%卡本納蘇維翁。比例成分與瑰麗華美的年份1998相似。75%新桶。酒體奢华豐盈, 精妙絕倫, 醇滑甘油與強勁单宁完美交織。質感如奶油般濃潤豐滿。梅樂含量高，滿溢李子香, 但卻未覆蓋小含量卡本納弗朗香味, 如裊裊餘音! 施慧娜（葡萄酒大師 M.W.）
