This stunning blend of 70% Merlot and 30% Cabernet Franc boasts a dense ruby/purple color along with a big, sweet bouquet of black cherries, licorice, roasted herbs, smoke, and cassis. Elegant, medium to full-bodied, pure flavors reveal moderately high tannin, but superb concentration and richness. Vieux Chateau Certan 2004 should be one of the longer-lived and most complex wines of the vintage. Anticipated maturity: 2012-2025.
Fabulous aromas of crushed berries, vanilla and chocolate, with pure fruit. Full-bodied, with silky tannins and a long, caressing finish. All in texture. A gorgeous and seductive wine. This Vieux Chateau Certan 2004 is 25 percent Cabernet Franc (normally it’s 15 percent).
